To begin with this particular recipe, we have to prepare a few ingredients. You can cook apple pie using 17 ingredients and 9 steps. Here is how you can achieve it.

The ingredients needed to make Apple Pie:

1. Take 4 bramley apples, washed
2. Prepare 50 g butter, plus extra to grease and dot
3. Take 1-2 tsp cinnamon
4. Take 4 cloves, optional
5. Get 100 g demerara sugar
6. Make ready 100-150 g caster sugar
7. Prepare 3 eating apples
8. Get nutmeg
9. Get 1 tbsp flour, ground rice or semolina
10. Prepare 1 tbsp demerara or granulated sugar
11. Make ready milk, for brushing
12. Prepare For the pastry
13. Get 400 g plain flour, or 350g plain and 50g spelt wholemeal
14. Take 200 g cold butter, grated
15. Get 1 tbsp caster sugar
16. Take 1 egg, beaten
17. Get 1 lemon

Instructions to make Apple Pie:

1. First make the pastry. Mix the flours and grate in the cold butter, then mix to fine breadcrumbs with your fingers.
2. Stir in the sugar and the zest of the lemon,then mix to a dough with the beaten egg, plus a little water if needed. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
3. Peel the bramley apples and cut into chunks. Place the peel and cores in a small pan.
4. Melt the butter in a large pan, add the cinnamon, cloves if using and demerara sugar and then stir in the apple chunks. Cook uncovered on a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally, until just starting to break up. Set aside to cool.
5. At the same time cover the pan of peel and cores with cold water, bring to the boil, and simmer for 30 minutes. This is a slightly odd thing to do (create 'apple stock'), and I've never heard of it before but Felicity says it makes a difference so I went with it. Measure out 60ml and discard the rest. Butter a pie dish. Preheat the oven to 180C/Gas 4.
6. Peel the eating apples and slice into small chunks. Add these to the cooked bramley apples together with 50ml apple stock, 100g caster sugar, a grating of nutmeg, and, Felicity suggests, the juice of half a lemon, but I missed this out. Taste, and add more sugar if you need to.
7. Roll out two thirds of the pastry and use it to line the base of the pie dish. Sprinkle ground rice or semolina (or flour) in the base and then sprinkle 1 tbsp sugar in there too.
8. Pile the cooled apple mixture into the pie crust. Dot with a little butter, dampen the edge of the pastry with milk and then cover with the pastry lid. Press down all round the edge and crimp the edge with your thumb and the blunt edge of a knife. Brush the top with the milk.
9. Bake in the oven for around 30-45 minutes until golden. When you take it out sprinkle with sugar straight away. Leave to stand for 10 minutes before serving, so the insides firm up a little. Serve in big slices with cream.
