Classic Apple Pie Recipe (Stars in the Galaxy)

Steps

1. 1To begin making the Classic Apple Pie recipe, first let’s knead the pie dough and let it rest. Till the time it will be ready to use, we will be done with all our preparations.
2. 2Firstly we will make the dough and tart base. Take all purpose flour in a bowl and add sugar. Mix well
3. 3Now add diced butter and mix it well using your fingers. Don’t use any spoon or ladle to mix. Do it with fingers as it will make sure that every bit of flour has a buttery flavor to it
4. 4After 5-10 minutes, you will start noticing crumbled texture of the flour. Dip your fingers in cold water and keep mixing it lightly.
5. 5Once the dough is kneaded, it will be rough crumbled dough, cover it in a cling film and let it rest in fridge for 30 mins
6. 6Take it out post 30 minutes and roll it out. Arrange it on the tart tin. Make sure you press the corners with thumb to make it stick in perfect shape.
7. 7On the base, make impressions with fork. This will make sure that the dough will not rise during baking. Now, spread kidney beans or chana over the top and bake well till 12 minutes at 150 degrees. Once you will see light golden color of the base, tarts are ready. Do not un-mould them.
8. 8The next step is to make the apple filling. Put all the stuff (except lemon juice and mint) in a pan and keep stirring it lightly
9. 9Once the apples get moist and caramel comes out of the pan due to sugar, switch off the gas Now add lemon juice and mint leaves. Mix well, taste it and adjust the spices.
