apple pie recipe, how to make vegan apple pie recipe |Cooking With Amanda

apple pie and apple tarts are an absolute favorite baked dish at home. on some occasions i make this apple tart and it really makes for a good sweet breakfast or evening dessert.

this is a vegan recipe for making apple pie. the pie crust is made both with whole wheat flour and all purpose flour in 2:1 ratio respectively. i have shown step by step pics to make this easy apple pie at home. even without using butter or cold water, the crust was crisp and flaky.

you can cover the top of the apple pie completely or make a lattice pie crust. apple pie is best had warm plain or with some glazed syrup or even whipped cream. you can even refrigerate the apple pie and have it later.

lets start step by step apple pie recipe:

1: seive or mix all the dry ingredients together – whole wheat flour, all purpose flour and salt.

2: add the olive oil

3. with your fingers tips rub the oil in the flour. keep on doing this and you will start to get a breadcrumb like texture. continue to do this till the whole mixture looks like breadcrumbs. this step should be done properly as this results in giving a flaky texture to the crust.

4: add water and just bind the whole mixture together. don't knead. gather everything and form a dough. if the dough looks dry, add some more water. cover the bowl and meanwhile prepare the apple filling.

5: peel, core and slice the apples. add the cinnamon powder, nutmeg powder, demerara sugar and whole wheat flour.

6: mix well.

7: divide the dough into two or four equal parts depending on the size of your pie pan. roll on a dusted work surface.

8: place one of the rolled pie crust gently on a greased pan and pressing it gently, line it with the pan.

9: arrange the apple slices with the filling evenly on the bottom pie crust. top the apple slices with dots of butter or a few drops of olive oil.

10: cover the pan with another rolled pie crust and fold the edges of the top crust over and under the bottom edges. you can also cut strips from the rolled dough and create a lattice pie crust. cut through the top pie crust with a fork or knife from top so as to allow steam to pass whilst baking. brush with soy milk or any milk and sprinkle some sugar and cinnamon powder on top.

11: bake the apple pies in a pre heated oven at 180 degrees C for 50-60 mins or till the crust has become golden and crisp. it took exact one hour in my oven. serve the apple pie warm or at room tempearture plain or with some whipped cream.
