To prepare a delicious apple pie, we will start by making a perfect dough, which will form the base of this recipe. In a large bowl, we combine the sifted flour with the dry yeast, salt, and sugar. We gradually add the warm milk, beaten egg, and melted butter, constantly mixing to avoid lumps. We knead the dough for about 10 minutes until it becomes elastic and smooth. After we finish kneading, we cover the bowl with a clean towel and let the dough rise in a warm place for about an hour or until it doubles in volume.
In the meantime, we take care of the filling. We peel the apples and grate them. We put them in a pot over medium heat, adding sugar and a packet of pudding. We constantly stir to avoid sticking, and when the apples start to bind, we add cinnamon, which will give a special aroma to the dish. We let the mixture boil for a few minutes until the apples become soft and the flavors combine, then we remove the pot from the heat and let the filling cool.
After the dough has risen, we divide it into two equal parts. We roll out one of the parts on a floured surface, forming a thin sheet. We carefully place this sheet in the prepared baking tray, which we have greased with butter or lined with parchment paper. We pour the apple filling over the dough, ensuring it is evenly distributed. We take the second part of the dough, roll it out like the first, and place it over the filling. If desired, we can make a few decorative cuts on the surface of the dough to allow steam to escape during baking.
Before putting the pie in the oven, we beat an egg and add a little sugar, which we use to brush the surface of the dough. This will give a golden and shiny crust, appealing. We preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius and bake the pie for about 40 minutes, or until it becomes nicely browned. When ready, we take the pie out of the oven and let it cool slightly before cutting. Served warm or at room temperature, this apple pie will surely be a delight for all who savor it. Enjoy your meal!
