Full of Jonathan Apples! My Family's Apple Pie Recipe
A pie my family makes that doesn't need to rely on cinnamon or lemon for it's scent and sour taste due to the combination of fresh and carmelized apples.
The frozen puff pastry will be easier to handle if partially defrosted slowly in the refrigerator.
The apple pie will taste best if you use juicier apples, so please use fresh ones. Recipe by honey0119

Cooking Instructions

Preparation: Partially defrost the frozen puff pastry. Pre-heat the oven to 210℃.

Peel the Jonathan apple. Cut the apple in half and divide one half into 8 vertical sections. Then cut each section into 2 - 3 mm thick wedges.
- 3
Take the other half of the apple and cut vertically into 2 - 3 mm thick wedges.

Add the ingredients marked with ☆ into a frying pan and apply heat until they turn a caramel colour.

When the mixture is a caramel colour, add the apple slices from step 2. Brown the apples until they become soft and also a caramel colour.
- 6
Brown until the water has evaporated from the apples and they are the same color as in the photo. Then leave to cool.
- 7
Take 1 frozen puff pastry sheet and lay the caramelized apples on top. Remember not to spread them over the entire width of the pastry sheet, there should be a gap at the edges as in the photo.
- 8
Lay the raw apple slices from step 3, over the top of the caramelised apple and sprinkle with a layer of sugar.
- 9
If you have one, roll a lattice roller over the other pastry sheet, if not, make a cut along the pastry evenly spaced every 5 mm to create a lattice pattern. Scatter a little water over the pie underneath.

Press the sides together gently to seal and after brushing over your glaze, pop in the pre-heated oven for roughly 30 minutes at 200℃.

This is the recipe for my mom's specialty, apple pie, which I love. When apples were in season, I always asked her to make a lot and sometimes took it to my friends place.I am not good at remembering things, so I switched few steps of the recipe process I learned.I make the apple jam a day before and let it cool. The pie pastry will be loose If the butter is soft, so do not bring the butter to room temperature and keep it in the refrigerator until just before using.The pie pasty will be more delicious if you fold and roll it out many times.

My Apple Pie My Apple Pie
Now that it's getting colder, it's the season for pie. And when I think of Jonathan apples that means one thing, apple pie. I'm not very good at using normal flaky pastry and the apples get soggy, so I always bake the apples first and make the pie like this.If the pastry becomes too soft while carrying out these steps then please continue doing them while chilling the pastry in the fridge. The amount of apples you will need will change according to the size of the pie and apples. This pie isn't so sweet, so please adjust the sugar amount to make it sweeter if you wish.

Easy Apple Pie Easy Apple Pie
About 20 years ago, I learned from an acquaintance that you can make apple pie without making the filling using raw apples. That was the start of this recipe. If you use raw apples as-is, they exude water, which makes the puff pastry soggy. Thus, after a lot of trial and error, I came to this recipe.The panko absorb the moisture that comes out of the apples. The butter adds richness. I use dried panko. Recipe by chako mama -
My Signature Apple Pie My Signature Apple Pie
It's a lot of work, but the cuteness level is outstanding and the filling matches this pie perfectly!Refer to this recipe for "Cheese Sticks Made with Frozen puff pastry"to use up the leftover puff pastry.Please make sure the filling is completely cooled before using. Also, chilling the pie in Step 9 is crucial for the pie to puff up. When performing Steps 3 and 8, if the strip isn't long enough, you can add to it, but make sure it doesn't get too thick.

Tiny Apple Pies Tiny Apple Pies
I just thought I would make this recipe so when a lot of people come to a party, there's enough pie to go around.When using the frozen puff pastry for steps 5 - 7, only take 1 sheet of pastry out of the fridge at a time. If they become soft they will be too hard to cut. For step 8, keep the rest of the frozen puff pastry in the freezer and take it out while the previous batch is still baking. Repeat this until all of the pastry has been used.If you split your apple chunks into 4 parts, you will have the perfect amount for each batch of pies. Recipe by Dockinoko -

I wanted to eat apple pie so much so decided to make this. It's so easy to make, so I often make it whilst chatting to my friends.You can make 2 pies from the apple filling in step 2. If you want to make a second pie, it's better to start making it just as the first one is almost done, this way the pastry sheets won't get too mushy.If we only make 1 pie at home we eat the rest of the apple filling with yogurt or ice cream.
