Steps

2 1/2 hrs

1

Prepare pastry dough. Add flour and salt into mixing bowl. Mix well.
2

Using pastry cutter, cut butter into flour. It is ready when flour/butter mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
3

Add ice water slowly, starting with 60ml, then half of previous, and so on. Pull mixture into a dough. Do not knead. Refrigerate for 1 hr.
4

Prepare apple filling. In a large mixing bowl, add apples, sugar, flour, cinnamon, salt, nutmeg, and lemon juice, and mix well. Refrigerate till pastry is ready.
5

Preheat oven to 195C fan assisted.
6

Assemble pie. Divide pastry dough into 2 portions - 1 for base and 1 for crust.
7

Using each half of dough, with a rolling pin, roll out dough to be slightly bigger than the 9-inch pie dish. Lay one sheet into dish to form base.
8

Add apple filling. Using other sheet, place on top, and close the pie by cutting out access and pinching sheets together.
9

On top of pie, make 4 cuts (to allow moisture to escape during baking). Brush top of pie with egg wash.
