Grated apple pie

Grated apple pie

Mon, August 22, 2016

Another recipe for apple pie, which is easier to prepare than usual, and flies off the plate in a matter of minutes. Grated pie with apples is called so because the dough for it is ground on a grater, and the inside contains apples. But we will also make this pastry very fragrant - we will add cinnamon to the apples, and a little vanilla to the dough. If Viennese biscuits are your thing, shredded apple pie will be your favorite addition to a cup of tea!

When finished, this pie comes out soft and slightly crumbly. Despite the fact that its base is shortbread dough, it will not be dry (as in the same Viennese cookies) - thanks to the relatively small amount of wheat flour, it remains soft and tender. The dough comes out quite sweet (you can adjust the amount of sugar to your own taste), and the juicy apple inside is simply fragrant with the smell of cinnamon. This homemade baked goods has everything in moderation, complete harmony of flavors - try it, you won’t regret it!

Making a dish step by step:

The recipe for this simple and delicious pie includes the following ingredients: wheat flour (I have the highest grade, but you can use the first grade), apples (better than the sweet and sour types - I have Snow White filling), butter, medium-sized chicken eggs, sweet sand , baking soda, lemon juice, ground cinnamon and a little vanilla (can be replaced with a teaspoon of vanilla sugar).

First, prepare the shortbread dough for the grated pie. Mix 340 grams of wheat flour with half a teaspoon of baking soda. Sift everything through a sieve so that there are no lumps.

The pie dough can be kneaded by hand, but the most convenient and fastest way is to use a food processor (attachment - iron knife). We combine two chicken eggs (45-50 grams each), 150 grams of sweet sand, a pinch of vanillin and 100 grams of soft butter (take it out of the refrigerator in advance and let it sit at room temperature).

Mix everything so that the products come together. After this, add the dry part - flour and soda.

Mix until a very tender, soft, sticky and one hundred percent homogeneous shortbread dough comes out. I am sure that you will be tormented by the desire to add more flour, but do not do it - otherwise the finished dough in the grated pie will not turn out tender and soft. Leave everything as it is - you won’t regret it later.

Divide the dough into 2 equal parts, flatten any piece and wrap it in a bag or cling film. Place in the freezer for an hour until the dough becomes hard and can be crushed using a large grater. Maybe you have a powerful freezer - then a little less time will be useful.

While the dough hardens in the cold, turn on the oven to heat up to 180 degrees. Let's prepare the filling for the grated pie: take 3 fairly large apples, peel them and remove the seeds. Grate the pulp on a large grater and pour lemon juice over it. This is necessary so that the apples do not darken too much and also get a pleasant light sourness.

Let's assemble our apple pie. Take a baking dish of suitable size (I have a silicone one 20x20 cm) and moderately rub one piece of chilled dough into it. There is no need to grease the pan because the dough contains a lot of butter. If you are not convinced of its shape, you can lightly grease it with refined vegetable oil or butter (in the second case, be sure to powder it with wheat flour).

We spread our apple filling onto the grated dough. If the apples are very juicy, drain the juice.

Sprinkle the apple filling with sugar and ground cinnamon to taste.

Rub the second part of the shortbread dough on top so that it lies in an even layer, covering the apple filling.

Place the grated apple pie in a preheated oven on a medium rack and cook at 180 degrees for about 35-40 minutes until beautifully golden brown.

Let the finished pie cool slightly in the mold, after which it can be cut into portions.

When finished, this pie comes out soft and slightly crumbly. Despite the fact that its base is shortcrust pastry, it will not be dry - thanks to the relatively small amount of wheat flour, it remains soft and tender. The dough comes out quite sweet, and the juicy apple inside is simply fragrant with the smell of cinnamon. This homemade baked goods has everything in moderation, complete harmony of flavors - try it, you won’t regret it!

Grated apple pie

It is difficult for even an inexperienced housewife to spoil a crumbly grated pie. Shortbread dough according to this usual recipe always comes out good, even if you slightly change the proportions. The juicy apple inside mixes deliciously with the crumbly, tender base - the result is a perfect treat for a family tea party. Please your family with these cozy homemade baked goods.

Ingredients for 8-10 servings:

for test:

• unsalted butter – 200 g;
• wheat flour, premium – 2-2.5 cups;
• chicken eggs, group C-1 – 2 pcs.;
• sugar – 0.75 cup;
• baking powder – 1 tsp. (no slide).

for the inside:

• sweet and sour apples – 4 pcs. (larger);
• ground cinnamon – 0.5-0.75 tsp. (optional);
• sweet sand - 3 tbsp. l.;
• potato starch - as needed.

How to make grated apple pie

Cut the butter into small cubes. It is not necessary to soften it; you can immediately begin making the dough. The butter in this recipe can be replaced with margarine of good quality.

Place the butter cubes in a bowl and add sugar.

Grind with a mixer or spatula until the ingredients are completely mixed.

Introduce eggs alternately. First, beat in one, beat until smooth and repeat the function.

The mixture will turn out to be quite heterogeneous due to the different density and temperature of the goods, but this will only benefit the shortbread dough, which is the basis of the grated pie.

Add baking powder to flour, mix. Sift 1 cup into the dough, beat with a mixer with a hook attachment or stir by hand.

Then add another glass of flour and knead the dough again. If it is very sticky, add the remaining half of the glass little by little.

From the resulting soft, flexible, buttery dough, roll into an elongated “bar” and wrap it in food-grade cellophane. This way the dough will cool faster than in a ball shape. Place the dough in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour. If there is little time to make the pie, put the dough in the freezer for 20-30 minutes. It is important that it hardens perfectly, so it is much easier and faster to grate it.

While the dough is chilling, prepare the apple filling. Remove the peel from the apples, but if it is narrow, you can throw it in; you won’t feel it in the finished pie. Cut the apples into 2-4 parts, remove the core. Grate any piece on a large grater.

Add sugar and cinnamon to the grated apples. The latter can be replaced with vanilla.

You can also add steamed and chopped dried fruits and crushed nut kernels to the filling. Stir the apples and let them sit for 10 minutes.

The inside of the apple will release juice. It can be drained or thickened with a tablespoon of starch.

Prepare a baking pan: line the bottom with baking parchment, grease the sides with a thin layer of butter. Pull out the dough and separate about half. Grate on a large grater and spread in an even layer along the bottom of a heat-resistant dish.

Place grated apples on top and smooth the top.

Grate the remaining dough and cover the filling with it. Bake in a preheated oven for 35-40 minutes at 180-200 degrees (the temperature depends on the characteristics of the oven!).

The finished pie will be ruddy and light brown. It’s not enough to cool the baked goods right in the pan, take them out and cut them into portions. You can serve. If desired, sprinkle with sweet powder and/or garnish with fresh mint leaves.

Grated apple pie

Grated pie with apples is a delicious version of homemade baking made from crumbly shortcrust pastry, which does not need to be rolled out, but can simply be grated directly into the pan on a large grater, alternating layers of apple or other insides. Thanks to this extraordinary manufacturing technology, grated shortbread pies feel even lighter and airier than you would expect from their “languorous” dough made from a huge amount of butter, sugar and flour, and if you also choose a delicate or juicy filling for them, the resulting products have the ability to practically melt in your mouth. To make sure of this, you can try making a grated pie with jam and cottage cheese, which combines inside itself both an appetizing fruit or berry additive and a velvety creamy curd layer, and now I would like to offer you another version of similar pastries, including a juicy apple filling and an unusual crispy layer of whipped egg whites.

Grated apple pie is not very difficult to prepare, but it requires a long time in the oven, which allows it to bake perfectly and form a perfect thickness on the inside. But despite the delayed tasting of the dish, I am sure that no one will be completely disappointed in the end, since this grated pie comes out tender, juicy and unusually harmonious in taste. Sweet crumbly shortbread dough mixes perfectly with sour elastic apple slices, and an extraordinary layer of whites whipped with sugar forms an amazing crispy crust on the surface of the pie, which is simply breathtaking. This unique version of apple pie can be a delightful alternative to the traditional apple charlotte and be included in the list of your favorite homemade pastries for everyday tea drinking with family and friends. Try to prepare grated apple pie according to my usual recipe, and this beautiful fruit dessert will give you incomparable pleasure, lift your spirits and bring together those closest and dearest to you at one table!

Necessary information

How to make grated apple and meringue pie - recipe for grated apple pie from shortcrust pastry with step-by-step photos

INGREDIENTS:

• 300 g flour
• 200 g cool butter
• 125 g sugar
• 3 egg yolks
• 1 pack baking powder
• a pinch of salt

3 medium apples (

500 g)

COOKING METHOD:

1. In order to prepare grated apple pie, separate the egg yolks from the whites and mix with sugar.

2. Beat the yolks with sugar using a mixer or a regular whisk into a thick snow-white mass.
3. Add cool oil, grated on a large grater, and mix everything lightly.
4. Add the flour sifted with baking powder and knead into a tight dough with your hands or in a food processor with the dough hook attachment.
5. Divide the dough into 3 parts - two similar larger ones and one much smaller one, roll them into balls, wrap them in cling film and put them in the freezer for 20 minutes.
6. Meanwhile, let's start making the inside for the grated pie. To do this, peel and seed the apples, cut them into small thin slices and mix with sugar.

7. Beat chilled egg whites with sweet powder at high mixer speeds into a dense, stable mass.

8. Now you can start assembling the shredded apple pie. To do this, grease a baking dish with butter and grate one huge piece of dough into it on a large grater.

9. Place the chopped apples on the dough and lightly compact them with your hands.
10. Grate the second large ball of dough onto the apples and distribute it moderately.
11. Place the whipped whites on the dough and smooth their surface using a spatula or spoon.
12. Rub the last, smallest part of the dough onto the whites.
13. Bake the grated apple pie in an oven preheated to 180°C for 30 minutes.

By this time, the top of the pie will have risen and browned very much, but the inside will not be completely baked, because the apples give a lot of juice, which slows down the cooking process. Therefore, you need to cover the pie with foil and throw it in the turned off oven for 2 - 3 hours or overnight (that is, in the dark) , and during this period of time it will be one hundred percent ready.

The cooled, fragrant grated apple pie can be cut into portions, served with a cup of tea or coffee, and slowly enjoy each piece.
Bon appetit!
