method


Obviously apple pie is one of the all-time classic desserts. My tip to you is to use both cooking and eating apples in the filling. The best apple pies I\'ve ever made are from apples bought at farmers\' markets where you can pick up lots of different varieties.

ingredients


for the pastry
• 250g plain flour, plus extra for dusting
• 50g icing sugar
• sea salt
• 1 lemon
• 125g cold butter, plus extra for greasing
• 1 large egg, preferably free-range or organic
• a splash of milk


for the filling
• 1 large Bramley cooking apple
• 4 eating apples (try Cox’s or Braeburn)
• 3 tablespoons Demerara or muscovado sugar
• ½ teaspoon ground ginger
• a handful of sultanas or raisins
• ½ a lemon
