Tips and Advice
Step 1: Get the dough ready. Add the flour, salt, and sugar to a big bowl and mix them together. Add the cubed butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut it into the flour until the mixture looks like big crumbs. Adding cold water one tablespoon at a time and mixing the dough together as you go will help it come together. Do not mix too much. Put the dough in the fridge for 30 minutes after rolling it into a ball.
Step 2: Make the filling. Put the diced apples, sugar, and cinnamon in a pan over medium-low heat. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes, until the apples get soft. After taking it off the heat, add the yogurt and vanilla extract and mix them in. Allow the filling to cool all the way down.
Step 3: Spread out and put together Warm the oven up to 375°F (190°C). Put parchment paper on the bottom of a baking sheet. On a floured surface, roll out the cold dough until it is about 1/8-inch thick. Use a cookie cutter or a knife to make circles or squares. Put a small amount of the apple-yogurt sauce in the middle of each piece of dough. To make a half-moon or rectangle form, fold the dough over the filling and press the edges together with a fork to seal them.
Step Four: Bake Spread the egg wash over the tops of the pies and, if you want, sprinkle with sugar. Put the pies in the oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Step 5: Do it. Wait a minute or two before serving the pies. You can eat them hot or at room temperature.
