Open Fruit and Apple Pie
Ingredients
275g / 10oz Odlums Cream Plain Flour
150g / 5oz Margarine
5 - 6 tablespoons cold Water
 
Filling
4 Eating Apples and Mixed Berries
50g/2oz Brown Sugar
2 teaspoons Ground Cinnamon
Grated Rind and Juice of 1 Lemon
25g / 1oz Butter
3 tablespoons Honey
 
Method
  • Preheat oven to 200°C/400°F/Gas 6 and lightly grease a 23cm/9" pie dish.
  • Sieve the flour into a bowl, add the margarine and rub in until the mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs.
  • Stir in just enough cold water to bring to a dough. Form into a ball, wrap in clingfilm and leave in the fridge for approx 20 minutes.
  • Peel core and slice the apples. Combine the sugar and cinnamon in a bowl, add the apples, mixed berries, lemon rind and juice and stir.
  • Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to a circle about 30cm /12" in diameter. Transfer to the prepared dish, leaving the dough hanging over the edge. Fill with the apple mixture.
  • Fold in the edges and crimp loosely for a decorative effect. Dot the apples with diced butter.
  • Bake in the centre of the oven until the pastry is golden and apples are tender, approx 45 minutes.
  • Melt the honey in a saucepan and brush over the apples to glaze.
  • Delicious served warm with vanilla ice cream or custard.
