Toffee Apple Pie Food

TOFFEE CRUMBLE APPLE PIE

Steps:

• Roll out and place one pie crust into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie plate, trimming to the edge of the pie plate all the way around. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• For the filling, in a large bowl, toss the apples with the lemon juice. Add the brown sugar, granulated sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Stir to combine. Add vanilla and cream and mix.
• In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the apple mixture and cook for about 6-8 minutes, stirring often (and adjusting the heat if the apples start to stick to the bottom of the pot) to soften the apples just a bit.
• Scoop the apple mixture into the pie shell and spread evenly.
• In the same bowl you used for the filling dry ingredients, combine the flour and sugar. Cut in the butter with a fork or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the chopped toffee bars. Sprinkle this mixture over the top of the apples.
• Roll out the top pie crust and place it on top of the pie. Leave a 1/4- to 1/2-inch overhang all the way around. Fold the top crust over the bottom crust and underneath. Press lightly to seal. Flute the edges and cut a few long slits in the top to vent the pie.
• Beat the egg white with a teaspoon of water and brush the top of the pie with the egg mixture. Sprinkle lightly with sugar.
• Place the pie on a baking sheet (to avoid any potential leaks dripping into your oven) and bake for about 50-60 minutes until the crust is golden and the apples are soft and tender. Serve warm or at room temperature.

TOFFEE APPLE CHEESE PIE

Steps:

• Combine the wafer crumbs, butter and sugar; press onto the bottom and up the sides of an ungreased 9-in. pie plate., In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese, sugar, sour cream and extract until smooth. Add eggs; beat on low speed just until combined. Coarsely chop pie filling; cover and refrigerate 3/4 cup for topping. Stir the walnuts, toffee bits and remaining pie filling into cream cheese mixture. Pour into crust., Bake at 325° for 40-45 minutes or until center is almost set. Cool on a wire rack for 1 hour. Refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight. Just before serving, top with reserved pie filling, walnuts and toffee bits.

STICKY TOFFEE APPLE PUDDING

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Grease a 2-litre/3½-pint ovenproof dish lightly with butter. Tip the flour, sugar and baking powder, along with a pinch of salt, into a large bowl. Mix together the milk, butter, egg and vanilla extract and stir into the dry ingredients until you get a smooth batter. Arrange the apples in the dish, spoon the batter on top and smooth with a knife until the apples are covered.
• For the topping, pour 250ml boiling water over the sugar and stir together until smooth. Pour the liquid over the pudding mixture, then scatter over the pecans. Bake for about 40 mins until the pudding has risen and is golden. Use a big spoon to serve the pudding, making sure you get some of the gooey caramel sauce covering the bottom of the dish. Serve with pouring cream, warm custard or vanilla ice cream.

TOFFEE APPLE TURNOVER PIE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F. Line cookie sheet with sides or 15x10x1-inch pan with cooking parchment paper or foil. In medium bowl, mix 1 cup flour and the salt. Using pastry blender (or pulling 2 tables knives through ingredients in opposite directions), cut in shortening until particles are size of small peas. Sprinkle with cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, tossing with fork until all flour is moistened and pastry almost leaves side of bowl (if necessary, 1 to 2 teaspoons more water can be added).
• Gather pastry into a ball. On lightly floured surface, shape pastry into flattened round. Using rolling pin, roll into 12-inch round, about 1/8 inch thick. Place on cookie sheet.
• In medium bowl, toss apples and 1 tablespoon flour. Mound apple mixture on half of pastry to within 3/4 inch of edge. Sprinkle with toffee bits. Fold pastry in half over apple mixture. Fold 1/2 inch of sealed edge of pastry over; firmly press tines of fork around edge to seal. Brush top of turnover with egg. Cut 3 slits, 1 inch long, in top to vent steam. Sprinkle top with sugar.
• Bake 30 to 40 minutes or until golden brown. Immediately remove from cookie sheet to serving plate. Cool 30 minutes before cutting.

TOFFEE APPLE TART

Steps:

• Put the unopened tins of condensed milk in a high-sided pan, covered with water. Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 3 hours with a lid on top. It's very important to remember to keep checking the pan, as you don't want it to boil dry - otherwise the tins will explode. It will give you the most amazing toffee. Put the tins to one side and allow to cool.
• To make the pastry, score the vanilla pod lengthways (if using), and scape out the seeds (keep the pod for making vanilla sugar).
• Cream the butter, icing sugar and a small pinch of sea salt together, then rub in the flour. Add the vanilla seeds, finely grate in the lemon zest and add the egg yolks - you can do all this by hand or in a food processor.
• When the mixture looks like coarse breadcrumbs, add the cold milk (or use water).
• Pat and gently work the mixture together until you have a ball of dough, then flour it lightly and roll into a large sausage shape - don't work the pastry too much otherwise it will become elastic and chewy, not flaky and short as you want it to be.
• Wrap the dough in clingfilm and place in the fridge to rest for at least 1 hour.
• Remove it from the fridge, slice it up and line a 28cm loose-bottomed tart tin. Push the slices together, then tidy up the sides by trimming off any excess. Place the tart mould into the freezer for 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F/gas 4, then take the pastry case out of the freezer and bake for 15 minutes, or until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly.
• Peel and quarter the apples and remove the cores, then finely slice and toss in the icing sugar.
• Spread the caramel from both tins over the pastry case. Place the apples on top and pour any remaining juices over.
• Bake at the bottom of the oven for 40 minutes, to give you a crisp base and bubbling toffee over the apples. Serve with yoghurt or vanilla ice cream. Beautiful!

TOFFEE APPLE TURNOVER PUFF PIE

Steps:

• Chop the apples into small chunks. Heat the butter in a pan over a medium-high heat until sizzling, then scatter in most of the sugar, reserving about 1 tsp. Bubble until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture is sticky. Tip in the apples and stir to coat. Season with a small pinch of sea salt flakes and cook for 5-6 mins until the apples have softened and started to caramelise and any juices they have released have evaporated. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool completely. Once cooled, will keep chilled for up to a day.
• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 with a baking tray inside on the middle shelf. Unravel the pastry on its baking parchment. Spoon the apple mixture over the right side of the pastry, leaving about a 1-2cm border around the edge, then brush the border all around the pastry with some of the beaten egg yolk. Fold the left side of the pastry over the apple filling to enclose it. Crimp or pinch the edge, or use a fork to seal. Use the back of a knife to score six triangles over the top of the pie, and make a few small slits in the centre of each. Brush all over with the rest of the egg yolk, then scatter with the reserved 1 tsp sugar.
• Carefully lift the pie, still on its parchment, onto the hot baking tray in the oven. Bake for 25-30 mins until puffed up and deeply golden. Leave to cool for 10 mins, then cut into wedges using the marked-out triangles as a guide.
