You can use any apples, I have even substituted for cherries.
You can 1/4 the spice or leave any spice out you dislike.
This recipe is customizable to your personal choices, is pretty bomb proof.
Holy yum!!! Awesome flavour, I did have some bought shortcrust pastry already that I needed to use, so this was an easy dessert. Sensational with double thick cream
Thanks for a banger!!
bonnielees:Hi. I used a 24cm flan tin and the recipe amounts for the pastry is just enough. You do need to roll it quite thin but it is doable.
Mazza81: I didn't have granny smiths I had what ever was in the fridge ? pink lady. It was still delicious.
shaymus33:No you roll it straight out the fridge and it won't crack then.
This turned out great. Right mix of spices so it wasn't overpowering. Pastry was lovely. A+
Total winner!! The whole family loved this, this will be my go to apple pie recipe.
Lovely, made it with gluten free flour and used an egg instead of water in the pastry, my husband gave it 10/10, thank you for the recipe, will use it again.
I made this recipe exactly as it appears, except for th type of apple, as I didn't have green. It was absolutely delicious. Thanks for a very easy, tasty recipe.
Pie was delicious, made a double batch of pastry which I need to perfect. When pastry comes out of fridge ...do you let it come back to room temp before you roll......mine was cracking and very hard to handle.
