Delicious Apple Pie Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 Pack of Vanilla Sugar (about 8g)
- 3 1/2 Cups Flour (about 440g)
- 1 Cup Butter (about 220g), softened
- 1 Cup Sugar (about 220g)
- 4 Eggs
- 1 Pack Baking Powder (about 15g)
- 2.2 Pounds Apples, Chopped into Small Pieces (about 1kg)
Directions:
Step 1: Prepare the Batter
- Mix Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, vanilla sugar, and baking powder. Add the softened butter and eggs. Stir until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Step 2: Add Apples
- Fold in Apples: Gently fold the chopped apples into the batter until evenly distributed.
Step 3: Preheat Oven
- Set Temperature: Preheat your oven to 210°C (410°F), using top and bottom heat or hot air.
Step 4: Prepare the Baking Tray
- Line Tray: Line a baking tray with baking paper to prevent sticking and burning.
Step 5: Bake
- Spread Batter: Pour the batter onto the prepared tray and spread it evenly.
- Bake: Bake for about 25-35 minutes, or until the surface is lightly browned and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 6: Cool and Serve
- Cool Slightly: Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool slightly.
- Cut: While still warm, cut the pie into pieces directly on the tray to prevent tearing.
- Optional Toppings: Dust with powdered sugar and/or decorate with almonds if desired.
Tips for Perfect Apple Pie:
- Even Apples: Make sure the apple pieces are evenly cut for uniform cooking.
- Check Doneness: Start checking the pie after 25 minutes to avoid overbaking.
- Cool Before Storing: Allow the pie to cool completely before storing to maintain texture.
