These Apple Pie (in the apple) treats are so much fun to bake and eat! They look so pretty with their pastry lids and there’s no messing about with individual baking dishes – the pie is cooked IN the apple!

Start by making a simple pastry dough in the food processor. While the pastry is resting, hollow out some apples and save the pulp.

To make Apple Pie (in the apple), you will need the following ingredients:

So, how to make Apple Pie (in the apple)?

Steps to make Apple Pie (in the apple)

1

Make pastry for lids

5

Place the flours, corn starch, sugar, butter, egg, salt and baking powder in a food processor. Mix until it forms a ball. If necessary, add a few drops of cold water. Don't over mix.

2

Chill

30

Place the pastry in the refrigerator to chill for 30 minutes.

3

Prepare apples

2

While the pastry chills, wash the apples and slice the top off each one.

4

Make filling

6

Using a sharp knife and a spoon, remove the centre of the apples to form bowls. Peel and chop the tops as well as the removed pulp and set it to one side in a small bowl.

5

Mix pulp with lemon juice

1

To stop the apples from getting dark, mix the pulp with lemon juice.

6

Heat the oven

5

Preheat the oven to 370 °F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

7

Roll out the dough

5

When the dough has chilled, roll it into a rectangle. Cut out 6 lids - I use a flower-shaped cutter for this. Be sure to make some holes to release vapor during baking.

8

Add the filling to the apples

4

Mix the sugar, ½ tablespoon of flour, and cinnamon together and sprinkle over the apple pulp. Toss with a spoon and fill the apple bowls with the mixture.

9

Place the lids on top

2

Place a lid carefully on each apple but don't press it down too hard.

10

Bake

40

Bake in the oven until the lids are light golden brown, about 40 minutes.

11

Serve

Serve warm, sprinkled with powdered sugar, if you wish.
