Grandma’s Favourite Apple Pie

Ingredients: -
400 g sweet/short pastry,
6 large granny smith apples, about 1 kg, sliced thinly,
1/2 cup raisins,
finely grated rind of 1 lemon,
3 Tbsp soft brown sugar,
1 tsp ground cinnamon,
Icing sugar to dust 
METHOD: -
Preheat the oven and oven tray to 190 ºC.
Divide the pastry into thirds. Keep one third for the topping, wrapped, in the fridge.
Take the remaining two thirds of the pastry and roll into a ball. Roll into a thin circle on a lightly floured surface. Line a 23 cm loose bottom quiche or flan dish with the rolled pastry. Trim the edges.
Mix the apple with the raisins, lemon rind, sugar and cinnamon. Spoon into the pastry case.
Roll out the remaining pastry until just larger than the pie dish.
Cover the dish with the pastry.
Decorate with any pastry scraps.
|Brush with milk. Bake for 40-45 minutes. Dust with icing sugar and serve warm with whipped cream or ice cream.
