Thermomix Apple Pie Recipe

For this recipe I usually like to use a combination of apples to create a better depth of flavour and to get the best characteristics of both types of apple.

THE BEST APPLES FOR APPLE PIE

For the best results it helps to have all the apple slices evenly cut.

HOW TO CUT AN APPLE FOR APPLE PIE

Making pie crust for apple pie in the Thermomix is super simple. You literally just add all the ingredients to the Thermomix and mix it together for 20 seconds.

STEP 1: MAKE THE PIE CRUST

Divide in into two and form each half into a flat disc. Do all this quickly - the less you handle the pastry the better.

Firstly peel and slice the apples. As you slice them, put them in a large bowl and sprinkle them with a little lemon juice to stop them from going brown.

STEP 2: MAKE THE APPLE PIE FILLING

Then tip the flour mixture over the thin slices of apple and mix well with your hands until all the apple slices are well coated. Set aside until you are ready to the fill the pie.

Use a rolling pin to roll it out into a large circle approximately 11 inches in diameter (or around 2 inches wider than your pie tin).

STEP 3: ASSEMBLE THE PIE

Then carefully transfer the pastry to your pie pan. You can roll it over your rolling pin to make it easier to transfer.

Pinch together the pastry at the edges and tuck in any excess. Remember that apple pie is supposed to be rustic so don't worry if it looks a little messy!

Finally make an egg wash by whisking together an egg with a teaspoon of sugar and use a pastry brush to gloss over the pastry lattice.

To bake the pie, place it in a pre-heated oven at 190C / 375 F for the first 20 minutes. Then lower the heat and continue cooking for a further 45 minutes - an hour. Then serve!

STEP 4: BAKE THE PIE
