Why not do as I have done? I've just gone for a classic Apple Pie. You just can't go wrong.
Classic Apple Pie Recipe
Ingredients:
For the Pastry-
350g plain flour
Pinch of salt
170g butter
6 tbsp cold water
1 egg, beaten for glaze
For the filling-
750g apples, peeled, cored and sliced
150g caster sugar, plus extra for sprinkling
Sprinkling of ground cinnamon or ginger
How to make it:
Sieve your flour and salt into a mixing bowl.
Add the water and bring together into a dough.
Wrap in cling film and stick in the fridge for half an hour
Pre-heat your oven to 180°C.
Prepare your apples one at a time and place in a bowl of cold water to stop then from discolouring.
Add the sugar and mix.
Roll out 2/3 of your pastry to line your dish, covering the bottom and sides.
Add your filing and sprinkle over about a tsp of the cinnamon or ginger, or both.
Roll out the remainder of the pastry for your lid.
Crimp round the edges and trim excess pastry. You can use this for decorations.
Beat one egg and glaze the top of your pie. Make a few slits in the top for steam to escape.
Pop in the oven for about 20 minutes, of until golden brown.
Sprinkle the top with sugar.
Enjoy!
