APPLE PIE
Method
DOUGH
Preheat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas mark 4
1
In the bowl of a mixer, mix the sugar and softened butter.
2
Add the flour and salt and mix again with the egg until you get coarse dough.
3
Roll the dough, wrap it with cling wrap and place in the fridge for an hour.
4
Roll out the dough (it’s okay if it’s coarse and doesn’t stick together, you can press the bits together in the tin).
5
Place it in a pie tin 24 / 26 cm (greased with melted butter) and poke it with a fork so that it doesn’t inflate. Place a piece of parchment on the top of the dough, fill with baking beans and blind bake it for about 12 to 15 minutes.

4
Cook in preheated oven 180C/160C fan/gas mark 4 for 25 minutes or until the dough is golden.
