What to do |
Place the butter, water, flour and salt in food processor bowl. Process just until the dough clumps together - about 5 seconds. OR... Place the butter, water, flour and salt in a large mixing bowl and knead by hand until the dough forms a ball. Divide the dough in half. On a floured board, roll out each ball of dough to form a circle a little larger than the dish in which you are going to cook the pie (about 10 inches) Carefully lift one circle of pastry off the board and place in the bottom of the pie dish so it covers the base and right up the sides too. Arrange apple slices on bottom of pie shell. Combine 1 tablespoon of the sugar with cinnamon and nutmeg. Sprinkle over apples. Beat together eggs, remaining sugar, milk, vanilla and salt. Place prepared pie plate on oven rack. Pour egg mixture over apples in pie shell. Place the remaining circle of pastry over the top of the pie and press down with a thumb all round the edges to join the bottom and top circles together. Bake in preheated 200 C oven until cooked, about 30 minutes. Cool or chill pie before serving. |
