Ingredients
For the filling
- 1kg Bramley apples
- 140g golden caster sugar
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- 3 tbsp flour
For the pastry
- 225g butter, room temperature
- 50g golden caster sugar, plus extra
- 2 eggs
- 350g plain flour, preferably organic
- softly whipped cream, to serve
Method
Put a layer of paper towels on a large baking sheet. Quarter, core, peel and slice the apples about 5mm thick and lay evenly on the baking sheet. Put paper towels on top and set aside while you make and chill the pastry.
For the pastry, beat the butter and sugar in a large bowl until just mixed. Break in a whole egg and a yolk (keep the white for glazing later). Beat together for just under 1 min – it will look a bit like scrambled egg. Now work in the flour with a wooden spoon, a third at a time, until it’s beginning to clump up, then finish gathering it together with your hands. Gently work the dough into a ball, wrap in cling film, and chill for 45 mins. Now mix the 140g/5oz sugar, the cinnamon and flour for the filling in a bowl that is large enough to take the apples later.
After the pastry has chilled, heat the oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Lightly beat the egg white with a fork. Cut off a third of the pastry and keep it wrapped while you roll out the rest, and use this to line a pie tin – 20-22cm round and 4cm deep – leaving a slight overhang. Roll the remaining third to a circle about 28cm in diameter. Pat the apples dry with kitchen paper, and tip them into the bowl with the cinnamon-sugar mix. Give a quick mix with your hands and immediately pile high into the pastry-lined tin.
Brush a little water around the pastry rim and lay the pastry lid over the apples pressing the edges together to seal. Trim the edge with a sharp knife and make 5 little slashes on top of the lid for the steam to escape. (Can be frozen at this stage.) Brush it all with the egg white and sprinkle with caster sugar. Bake for 40-45 mins, until golden, then remove and let it sit for 5-10 mins. Sprinkle with more sugar and serve while still warm from the oven with softly whipped cream.

Яблочный пирог, шоколад и другая праздничная еда, полезная для здоровья
Новый год — это время праздничной еды и всевозможных сладостей. Нам порой сложно устоять и не попробовать их все. Конечно, самые вкусные блюда не всегда бывают полезными, а это плохо сказывается на фигуре. Но это не означает, что нужно отказываться от них во время праздников. Обращайте внимание не только на калорийность блюда, но и на его общую пользу. Есть много продуктов, которые на самом деле принесут больше пользы для здоровья, чем вреда. Расскажем о них в нашей статье.
Яблочный пирог
Десерты — это один из самых опасных врагов нашей фигуры. Выпечку часто называют источником пустых калорий, которые наш организм усиленно преобразует в жир. Стоит ли отказываться от нее? Яблочный пирог точно нельзя назвать очень вредным для здоровья десертом. Яблоки содержат в себе много клетчатки, которая ускоряет насыщение и улучшает пищеварение. В их состав входит и пектин — микроэлемент, служащий основным источником питания для кишечных бактерий.
Блинчики
Блинчики сами по себе не кажутся полезным блюдо. Отчасти это правда. Полезность блинов зависит от их начинки. Если вы кладете в них майонез, смешанный с сыром, организм получает лишние калории и жир. Другое дело, если вы в качестве начинки берете рикотту или творог. Эти ингредиенты уменьшают калорийность блюда и делают блинчики более питательными. А яйца, которые кладут в тесто, содержат холин. Этот элемент необходим для работы мозга. Он влияет на нашу память, настроение и рост мышц. Чтобы сделать блинчики еще полезнее, не используйте при их приготовлении пшеничную муку высшего сорта. Лучше возьмите гречневую, овсяную или кукурузную.

Ingredients
- 200g milk chocolate, finely chopped
- 4 small eating apples
To decorate
- sugar strands, finely chopped nuts, sprinkles, honeycomb pieces
- 50g of each white and dark chocolate, chopped (optional)
You will also need
- 4 skewers, wooden chopsticks or large lolly sticks
Method
Put the chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of just simmering water, being careful that the bowl doesn’t touch the water. Stir frequently for 10 mins until completely melted, smooth and shiny. Remove from the heat. Alternatively, heat the chocolate in short bursts in the microwave, stirring between each burst, until melted.
Put the apples in a heatproof bowl and pour over boiling water from the kettle. Drain carefully, and wash under hot water to remove any residual wax on the skin. This helps the chocolate stick better. Pat dry with kitchen paper, remove the stalks and push a lolly stick or skewer in its place.
Line a baking tray or large board with baking parchment. Hold the apples by their sticks and dunk into the melted chocolate. Use a spoon to coat the tops of the apples if you like. Once the apples are completely coated, hold over the bowl for a few seconds for excess chocolate to drip back into it, then place, stick pointing up, onto the prepared tray. Leave to set for a minute or two.
Tip the decorations into separate bowls. When the chocolate on the apples is just starting to set but not fully firm, sprinkle the decorations onto the apples. Hold them on their side and rotate using the stick to completely cover. Place back on the tray and leave until completely set.
If using the white and dark chocolate to decorate, heat each separately, as you did the milk chocolate in step 1, then leave to cool slightly. Melt the dark chocolate first, then when the chocolate apples are set hard, use a teaspoon to drizzle this over them, again holding the stick so the apple is on its side and rotating the apple. Have a sheet of baking parchment underneath to catch any drips. Place back on the tray and leave to set, then repeat the process using the white chocolate. Will keep in an airtight container in a cool place for two days.
