Pastry:
300 g flour
1/2 tsp baking powder

100 g sugar
2 tsp vanilla sugar
1 egg
Filling:
1000 g cooking apples
50 g raisins

1/2 tsp cinnamon
To glaze:
1 egg yolk
2 tbsp milk
Method:
1. Mix the flour, baking powder, butter
or margarine, sugar, vanilla sugar and
egg together and knead into a smooth
dough. Use about 2/3 of it to make the
base. Press it evenly into the bottom of
a greased and floured springform cake
tin (C 26 cm). Make a rim about 2 cm
high around the edges of the tin.
Pre-bake if using Fan plus or
Conventional. (Pre-baking is not
necessary with Intensive bake or the
Automatic programme).
2. Peel and core the apples, then either
dice or slice them. Steam them gently
in a saucepan together with the raisins,
sugar, cinnamon and 3 tablespoons of
water. Leave to cool and then place in
the (pre-baked) pastry case.

apples. Press the edges and then
bake. About 10 minutes before the end,
brush the surface with a mixture of milk
and egg.

the pie before it goes in the oven. Do
