Preparation time: 20 minutes Baking time: 45 minutes Total time: 1 hour and 5 minutes Servings: 12 Ingredients: For the crust: - 20 tablespoons of flour - 6 tablespoons of sugar - 1 packet of baking powder - 1 whole egg + 1 yolk - 1 package (200 g) of butter (ideally at room temperature) - 3 tablespoons of sour cream - 1 teaspoon of vanilla essence For the filling: - 1.5 kg of grated apples (choose tart apples like Granny Smith for a more balanced flavor) - 250 g of sugar - 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon For the topping: - 5 tablespoons of powdered sugar - 1 teaspoon of cinnamon Instructions: 1. Preparing the apple filling: Start by peeling the apples and grating them. Place them in a large pot with the sugar and cook over medium heat. Stir constantly to prevent sticking. The apples will begin to release their juice, and after about 15-20 minutes, they will become soft. Once the apples are softened, add the cinnamon and mix well. Let the filling cool. 2. Preparing the dough: In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and baking powder. Add the diced butter, whole egg, yolk, sour cream, and vanilla essence. Knead the ingredients until you achieve a smooth and elastic dough. Divide the dough into two equal parts, shape them into balls, and let them rest for 10 minutes at room temperature. 3. Assembling the pie: Roll out each piece of dough on a floured surface to obtain two thin sheets. Preheat the oven to 180°C. Grease a baking dish with margarine and dust it with flour to prevent sticking. Place the first sheet in the dish and evenly distribute the cooled apple filling. Cover with the second sheet of dough and seal the edges to prevent the filling from leaking. 4. Baking: Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, or until golden brown. Finally, check with a toothpick if the dough is well cooked inside. 5. Serving: After removing the pie from the oven, let it cool completely in the dish. Then, sprinkle the powdered sugar mixed with cinnamon on top for an attractive appearance and additional aroma. Cut into squares and serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of sour cream for a creamy touch. Helpful tips: - Use fresh, seasonal apples for a more intense flavor. - You can add chopped nuts or hazelnuts to the apple filling for added texture. - For an even more aromatic flavor, try adding a teaspoon of lemon juice to the apple filling. This apple pie is a quick and simple dessert, perfect for enjoying with loved ones. Enjoy!
