Hello everyone! I’ve decided to share my latticed apple pie recipe with you! I’ve had to tweak a few details to make it as easy as possible with as very few ingredients as possible, to make it more appealing to today’s circumstances when everyone is isolating and not all food is accessible!
I do strongly advise people who haven’t made many apple pies to blind bake the bottom first! This guarantees you not getting a soggy bottom! So when you follow my recipe, after rolling the pastry into the pie tin and chilling for 10 minutes, blind bake it for 10 mins in the oven at 200c. In order for the bottom to not bubble up, cover it with foil, pour baking beans, or if you haven’t got any of those, rice or lentils (anything heavy that doesn’t melt!) on the foil, bake for 10 mins, bring it out, remove the foil and bake for another 5 until all the bottom is baked, then continue with the rest of my recipe!
IF you’re more comfortable with working with pastry, use the recipe as it is! My metal pie tin is at my mum’s, so I had to use a ceramic pot. If you’re not blind baking, and do have a metal tin, I strongly recommend using that instead of a ceramic tin!
Other than that, if you have any questions, suggestions or even tips, do write it in the comment section! And enjoy 😉 xxx
