Puff Pastry Apple Pie Recipe By Tasty Food

PUFF PASTRY APPLE PIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200C/180 Fan/Gas 6.
• Heat the apples, 50g/2oz of the caster sugar, the butter and 3 tablespoons of water in a saucepan over a medium heat. Bring the mixture to the boil, stirring well, then cover and reduce the heat until the mixture is simmering. Continue to simmer for 3-5 minutes, or until the apple has softened.
• Remove the lid and stir well, then cook for a further 2-3 minutes, or until the apple has completely broken down to a purée. Taste the purée and stir in more sugar as needed, then remove the purée from the heat and set aside to cool.
• Place one sheet of puff pastry onto a baking tray lightly greased with butter. Lay the slices of marzipan on top of the pastry to cover, leaving a border of 2cm/1in all the way around.
• Spread the cooled apple purée over the layer of marzipan, then brush the pastry border with a little of the beaten egg.
• Fold the second sheet of puff pastry in half lengthways, then carefully score the pastry from the folded side towards the cut side at 1cm/½in intervals down the length of the pastry, leaving 2cm/1in intact at the cut side of the pastry.
• Unfold the scored pastry and lay it exactly on top of the apple-covered pastry, then crimp the edges to seal the two sheets of pastry using your fingers.
• Trim the edges of the pastry and brush the top of the Bramley apple slice all over with the remaining beaten egg. Sprinkle the top with demerara sugar, then bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the pastry has risen and is crisp and golden-brown.
• Allow to cool slightly before serving, serve with the clotted cream.

BAKED APPLE PIE DUMPLINGS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Peel apples completely, removing all skin and stems. Halve apples across the middle creating both a top and bottom piece. Using a melon baller remove the core, being careful not to go completely through the bottom. Once the core is removed, continue using the melon baller to carve out the interior of the apple, keeping the small pieces of apple seperate.
• In a small bowl, combine the carved out apple pieces with the white sugar, cinnamon, cornstarch, and softened butter. Mix until apple pieces are evenly coated.
• Lay puff pastry out on a lightly floured surface. With a rolling pin, spread pastry out to make a sheet measuring roughly 9x14 inches (23x36cm). Using the round top of a sauce pan (ideally 6-7 inches (15-17 cm) in diameter), cut 2 circles of pastry out of each sheet and set them aside.
• Preheat oven to 400˚F (200˚C).
• Spoon filling into the hollowed-out core of the apples and place each filled apple in the middle of a round piece of pastry.
• Apply a light wash of egg white to the rim of the pastry and fold toward the center over the apple, crimping the pastry as the edges meet. Continue until all the edges have been brought together. Use your hands to keep shape of the dumpling.
• Once shaped, brush more egg white over the top of each dumpling. Lastly, using a small pairing knife, cut a small vent into the top of each dumpling.
• Bake for 18-22 minutes in a preheated oven, or until pastry is golden brown and filling is bubbling.
• Cider Sauce: While dumplings are baking combine water, apple cider, sugar, and cinnamon in a saucepan and bring it to a boil. Boil for 15 minutes allowing sauce to reduce and become thick.
• Before serving, remove from heat and whisk in the 2 tablespoons of butter and lemon juice.
• Serve by pouring sauce over dumplings while still hot.
