You will need:
2 cups flour (Plus more for dusting)
180g butter (plus more for greasing tray)
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp sugar
1 jar of apple sauce
4 apples
1/3 cup water
An oven
A rolling pin
A large mixing bowl
A large cutting board
Pie ring/ flan ring (no bottom)
A baking tray
Basting brush
A knife
A peeler
A big spoon
Method:
- Cut the butter into large cubes
- Put the flour into the mixing bowl
- Mix the sugar and salt into the flour
- Add the butter cubes to the flour and make sure each one is covered in flour
- Add some of the water and squish the mixture together.
- Keep adding water and squishing until you are happy
- Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius (bake)
- Dust the large chopping board and rolling pin
- Roll out the pastry until the pie/flan ring can fit comfortably inside it
- Roll half the pastry around the rolling pin
- Grease and dust the baking tray with flour and butter
- Place the pie ring on the baking tray
- Pick up the pastry (which should still be around the rolling pin), and, while holding the roller on the rolling pin steady, roll it over the pie ring
- Push the pastry gently so that it fits into the pie ring
- Remove the outer bits (the bits that aren't in the ring)
- Baste the pastry by spreading apple sauce all over it (don't use it all up!)
- Peel and cut the apples and fill the pie with them
- Spread apple sauce on top with the back of a big spoon
- Put two knobs of butter on top if you have
- Put the pie in the oven and bake until golden brown
Once you have your pie, throw it at your computer! Everything looks better with apple sauce!
If you don't want to make your computer all sticky, grab the toolset and add cats and flowers and grass to the place! They are sorely needed!
