flour

🥗Healthier: whole wheat flour

Whole wheat flour adds fiber.

In a bowl, cream together butter and sugar with a little vanilla essence until fluffy.

Add flour to the mixture and combine using hands to make a dough without any water or milk.

Roll out the dough to about 1/4 inch thickness using two sheets of butter paper.

Line the tart shell with the rolled dough, repairing any tears with fingers if necessary.

Chill the lined tart shell in the fridge to cool.

Peel and chop the apples.

In a pan, cook chopped apples with brown sugar, caster sugar, and cinnamon powder.

Add a corn flour slurry (corn flour mixed with water) to the apple mixture to bind the juices.

Transfer the apple filling into the lined tart shell.

Roll out the remaining dough and cut it into strips to create a checkered pattern on top of the filling.

Optionally, brush the top with milk for a glaze.

Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for approximately 30 to 35 minutes.

Let the apple pie cool down before slicing and serving.
