Project Description

SERVES: 6

INGREDIENTS

  • 4 slices of plain flavoured Mountain Bread

  • 8-10 granny smith apples, cored and diced

  • 1 tbsp of honey

  • 3 tsp of cinnamon

  • ½ a cup of sultanas

  • 1 tbsp of butter, melted

  • 1 heaped tbsp of brown sugar

  1. First, stew the diced apples in a large saucepan using a little bit of water in the bottom of the pan. Bring the water to a simmer, then add the apples, honey, 2 tsp of cinnamon and the sultanas to the pot. Cook, stirring every 2 minutes, until the apples are tender (should only take 3-4 minutes). Allow to cool to room temperature.
  2. Spray a small baking dish with olive oil and lay two sheets of Mountain Bread, overlapping in the middle, into the base. Bake at 180c for 3-4 minutes or until the bread is crisp.
  3. Remove the dish from the oven and add one folded sheet of Mountain Bread to the bottom of the pie base (this will help soak up juices and keep the base crispy when the apple is added).
  4. Spoon the cooled apple mixture into the pie case.
  5. Cut your last piece of Mountain Bread into strips, and lay on top of the apple mixture in a criss-cross pattern.
  6. Brush the butter over the top strips of Mountain Bread using a pastry brush, then mix the remaining cinnamon and brown sugar together to sprinkle on top.
  7. Bake at 180c for approx.. 10 minutes, or until the top is golden and the sugar is melting.
  8. Serve immediately (with custard or ice cream is particularly yummy…) Enjoy!
