Burned My Thumb With Lighter

Apple Pie (American apple pie)


Another recipe I've always dreamed of doing, from my early childhood, since I saw the Yogi Bear cartoons or read the comics of "Don Micky and Donald's grandmother appeared to their steaming apple pies in the window ... That may be one of the origins of my love of sweet, I was spellbound watching them and thinking "How would that" it was so good looking.

And the other day with a lot of apples to spend on the blog found it " The sweet apple Eva." And like all apple pies I put my passion to work.

is very good: lots of fruit and less mass (and seems to give less guilty about the calorie intake, "but it is very healthy, I've put almost a kilo of apples", lol).

I have increased the proportion of mass that makes Eve. If you want to put it the amount you can click the link. Of which I will get you more than enough, but better manejareis not go so just the quantity. And if you

complicaros least one tip: instead of making pastry dough buy already prepared and only you will have to make the filling, it's more manageable and will suffer less at the time of installation. I will say that I've put no easy ... Encourage them to her!


INGREDIENTS (for a cast of about 24 cm.) :

For the dough: 350 grams
  • .
  • flour 1 teaspoon salt 1 tablespoon
  • 130 grams sugar.
  • butter 65 oz. lard or margarine (or butter for desserts)
  • 4 tablespoons water

For the filling:
  • 900 grs.
  • apples 2 tablespoons flour
  • 110 grs.
  • sugar 1 3 / 4 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 / 2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 / 2 teaspoon vanilla extract (or vanilla sugar, optional)
  • 1 / 4 teaspoon ginger (optional)
  • 1 egg 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 / 4 teaspoon nutmeg (optional)
  • 1 / 4 teaspoon salt

Mix well by hand: flour, cold butter cut into pieces, lard and pinch of salt. It must be a texture as sand.

added a tablespoon of sugar and continue mixing with your hands. And finally add water, mix with hands to acquire a compact mass. Cover with cling film and leave in refrigerator for 1 hour.

Peel apples, disheartened and cut into wedges. We add the juice of half a lemon (to keep from browning).

grate some ginger (not much because the flavor is too strong), grated nutmeg, a teaspoon of cinnamon, one teaspoon vanilla concentrate, about 100 grs. of sugar and about two teaspoons of flour. Mix well.

Flour a work surface and roll to use and roll the dough, (nothing happens when you crack). Also you can stretch over baking paper or cling film to better handle the dough.

Tip: roll the dough once stretched over the roller and so you provide when placed into the mold to be used (previously the mold spread with butter and dusted with flour). Help you with your hands to shape the mold (adapted well to the mold). If rompre or is not perfect then you can arrange with the pieces left over. Cut the protruding edges, which are used to make the top of the cake.

Add the apple, and what we do cutting edge top (not on mass) spread on the mold and closing the edges of cake.

Paint with beaten egg and sprinkle with sugar. Make a vent in a cross in the center with the help of the tip of a knife (lifting the ends of the cross a bit out).

Bake at 180 ยบ C for 30 minutes.
