Dutch apple pie

Time to harvest your apples! 

And now. 

Let's make a real Dutch apple pie. 

1 kg cooking apples

225 grams plain flour

150 grams unsalted butter at room temperature

1 egg

A good handful of raisins

Sugar

Cinnamon

Mix the egg through the flour. 

Add the butter and about a tablespoon of sugar and mix until it's all combined. 

Butter your cake tin and cover the bottom and side with the dough. Make sure it only thin! 

You should keep a little bit of dough to make the topping at the end. 

Core and peel the apples and cut them up. Whatever way you fancy; in slices, in small cubes, whatever. 

Mix them with the raisins and sprinkle with a good bit of sugar and cinnamon. Put the apple mixture in the cake tin and preheat your oven to 180 degrees. 

Roll the left over dough into thin strips and lay them, in a cris-cros pattern, over the apple. Brush with a bit of egg and bake for 35-40 minutes. 

Let it cool a bit before serving. 

Needless to say: cream is a necessity.
