Ingredients
Method
Make the crust
- Combine the flour, sugar and salt in a large bowl. Cut in the butter with a pastry cutter or two knives to break the butter up into tiny pieces.
- One tablespoon of milk at a time, mix the dough until the dough comes together to form a ball. Make sure not to add too much milk, though.
- Shape into a disk and cover in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 2 hours until chilled.
Prepare the apples
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Cut the tops off of the apples, cut a checkered pattern on the 'meat' of your apples, leaving the skin and a little boarder on the outside.
- Scoop out the pieces of the inside of the apples and put in a small bowl. Discard the core and seeds.
- Add the 2 teaspoons of sugar and ground cinnamon to the small bowl with the apple pieces. Stir to combine.
- Fill the hollowed apples with the cinnamon sugar covered apple pieces.
Assemble and bake
- Meanwhile, roll out the dough to 1/4 inch thick and cut long strips of dough.
- Place the strips of dough into a weaved pattern on top of the apples. Cut excess off.
- Place in a loaf pan covered in parchment paper, spray the tops with olive oil and bake for 30-40 minutes until tender and golden brown.
