Apple Pot-Pie

I always make apple crumble for desert but this time I decided to be experimental with some left-over tart dough that I had in the fridge, got ramekins and made apple pot-pie instead! It is really easy to make and comforting especially during a wet, windy and chilly day!

Goes Well With: fruit yogurt, ice-cream

Ingredients

  • 1 red apple - cored, peeled and roughly sliced
  • 1 tsp sugar (optional)
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon powder (optional)
  • 2 ramekins
  • Left-over tart dough (enough to form a cover for each ramekin)
  • Tart dough:
  • 225g plain flour
  • 125g butter
  • 55g icing sugar
  • 1 egg, whisked
  • A dash of vanilla essence

Directions

  1. Left-over tart dough:
  2. Cream the softened butter with sugar in a mixer until smooth, fluffy and light.
  3. Add the egg (half at a time) and beat at a low speed. Mix in the vanilla essence.
  4. Sift the flour in two batches, combine all the ingredients and knead into a dough.
  5. Pie filling:
  6. Mix the sugar and cinnamon powder into the sliced apple and layer into the ramekins.
  7. Cut two round shapes from the dough to form a cover on the ramekins.
  8. Bake in a pre-heated oven at 170 degrees for about 20-25 minutes or until the pie is cooked through. (Check your own oven for specifications).
  9. Note: Once the pie is light brown, use a toothpick to see that it is cooked through. Let the pies sit in the oven for 5 minutes before serving warm. The apples inside would be nice and warm.
