You can shop buy the pastry to make it quicker but I made mine from scratch. Also used windfall apples from my neighbour- lovely autumn warmer

Steps

1

Sift the flour and salt. Chop the room temperature butter into large chunks.
2

Add the butter to the flour and cover each piece with flour and roughly mix with a knife. Make a well in the middle and add your water keep mixing roughly with a knife - you need it to still be chunky with lumps of butter, don’t mix too much.
3

Wrap in cling film and allow to rest in the fridge for 20 minutes.
4

Peel, core and dice the apple.
5

Remove your pastry from the fridge and roll into a rectangle shape.
6

You need to not over work it. The butter should look like marble throughout the pastry. Fold it into thirds, rewrap in clingfilm and put back into the fridge. IMPORTANT- Repeat this step two more times.
7

Add the sugar and cinnamon to your apple and stir well, leave to sit until your pastry is ready.
8

When the pastry is ready, roll it out one more time and cut into squares.
9

Load each square with your apple mixture and fold over, seal with the prongs of a fork and cut away any extra pastry.
10

Place evenly on a lined baking tray. Rub some of the apple juice over the top and sprinkle extra sugar and cinnamon too.
11

Place in a preheated oven at 200 degrees for 25 minutes until golden brown.
