This recipe is a more healthy alternative to the regular apple pie made with all purpose flour. It is much more tastier, because the flavour is more intense when using whole wheat flour.
Ingredients:
For the pie crust:
11/3cups whole wheat flour
1/4tsp table salt
1/2 cup of chilled margarine cubed
1/4 cup of cold water
For the filling:
4-5 apples, peeled and cubed
2tbs lemon juice
2/3cups white sugar
1/3cups brown sugar
2tbs whole wheat flour
1tsp Cinnamon
1egg
1tbs of water
Preparation:
Pie crust
Mix the flour and salt in a clean bowl, add the margarine afterwards, use a potato masher to mash, till it looks like a coarse crumb. Gradually add the water until it finishes and you are able to mould the pastry into a ball. Cover up and refrigerate for about an hour. On a floured surface, share the dough in half, and roll each to fit inside your pie plate. Lay one half on the bottom of the pie plate and reserve the other one for the topping.
Filling:
Put the apples in a clean bowl, add the lemon juice, and mix together. In a separate bowl, mix the brown sugar, white sugar, flour and Cinnamon, and pour over the apple. Properly mix everything. Pour into the pie plate and cover with the remaining crust. Seal the edge with your hand and use fork to press down properly. Mix the egg and water, use a brush to brush the egg lightly on the topping. Use a fork or knife to make slits on the topping for steam to escape when its starts to bake. Bake for 40-45minute or until golden brown at 350degrees F.
It can be served either cold or warm. Enjoy!
