Apple pie with custard

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   How to make apple pie with custard? First prepare the dough. Prepare the products for him. Cool the oil well before cooking. It is not necessary to freeze it, just take it out of the refrigerator immediately before adding it to the flour.

2. Step 2:

   

   Take a large bowl. Sift the flour into it. This will get rid of lumps, and make baking more lush and softer. Add salt and baking powder. Mix it up. Please note that you may take more or less flour than I do. Be guided by the consistency of the dough.

3. Step 3:

   

   Remove the butter from the refrigerator, cut it into cubes. Add the butter to the flour and rub the mass with your hands to the state of sand crumbs.

   Add egg, sugar and sour cream.

   Stir the dough first with a fork, and then with your hands. It quickly becomes a ball. Put the bowl with the dough in the refrigerator while the filling is being prepared.

    Take a baking dish. This recipe is designed for a shape with a diameter of 20 cm. I have a detachable one, I lined the bottom with baking paper. It is not necessary to lubricate the mold — there is a lot of oil in the dough, it will not stick. Take the dough out of the refrigerator, divide it into two parts — 2/3 and 1/3. Distribute most of the dough with your hands along the bottom and sides of the mold. It is convenient to do this by cutting off pieces of the same thickness and laying out the shape with them. Prick the dough with a fork so that it does not swell when baking.

    Lay out the strips in the form of a grid on top of the cream. Fold the sides, covering the edges of the mesh. Pinch them with a fork.

19. Step 18:

    

    Bake the pie in the oven at 180 ° C, top-bottom mode, about 40-45 minutes. Determine the exact time and temperature of baking according to your oven. The top and edges of the pie should be gilded. Cool the finished cake a little, and then remove from the mold.
