What to make with apples: this pie will work even for those who are going to bake it for the first time in their lives
The apple pie recipe from this article is suitable even for those who have never baked anything before.
The basic instructions, according to which everything will definitely work out, were shared by the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, chef Yulia Arkhipova.
It is important to follow every step of the recipe and not be lazy about whipping the whites separately from the yolks, the expert reminds, because this is what will make the dough fluffy and light, even if there are a lot of apples in the pie.
Let's start by listing the necessary ingredients. These include:
- Sour apples – 4–5 pieces,
- Flour – 200 grams (one glass),
- Sugar – 80 grams (a little less than half a glass),
- Eggs - four pieces,
- Baking soda - half a teaspoon,
- Ground cinnamon - one heaped teaspoon,
- Ginger root - a piece about three centimeters long,
- Salt - one or two pinches,
- Vegetable oil for greasing the pan.
You should start by turning on the oven: while you are kneading the dough, it will heat up to the required 180 degrees.
Apples should be cut into thin slices and mixed in a deep bowl with cinnamon and salt. Add ginger juice here too - for this, the root should be grated on a fine grater and the liquid from the pulp should be given away.
For the dough, you need to beat the whites separately until they form stiff peaks, and mix the yolks with sugar and beat them until the mixture becomes larger in volume and acquires a light cream color.
Combine the yolks with the whites, mix carefully and gradually add flour and soda. Place the dough in a greased baking pan, spread it evenly over the bottom and put the filling on top.
Bake the pie for 30-35 minutes. In the last 3-5 minutes, you can turn on the grill to get a golden crust on top.
