Preparing the Apples
Wash the Apples: Ensure the apples are thoroughly cleaned to remove any dirt or residue.
Core and Slice: Remove the cores from the apples and slice them thinly. Pro tip: Sprinkle lemon juice over the slices to prevent browning and add a zesty flavor.
Mixing the Batter
Beat Eggs and Sugar: In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs and sugar together until the mixture turns foamy and pale in color.
Add Milk: Gradually pour in the room temperature milk while continuing to beat the mixture. This will ensure a smooth and creamy consistency.
Incorporate Flour: Sift the plain flour into the bowl and mix until a smooth batter forms. Be sure to eliminate any lumps for a flawless texture.
Baking the Pie
Prepare the Tray: Line a smaller baking tray with parchment paper and grease the sides with butter. This prevents the pie from sticking and ensures easy removal.
Layer the Apples: Arrange the sliced apples evenly on the prepared baking tray, creating a uniform layer.
Add the Batter: Pour the prepared batter over the sliced apples, ensuring they are completely covered.
Finishing Touches
Bake to Perfection: Preheat your oven to 190°C and bake the pie for approximately 40 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
Sprinkle with Sugar: Once baked, dust the apple pie with powdered sugar for an extra touch of sweetness.
Cool and Serve: Allow the pie to cool slightly before slicing and serving. Pair with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for the ultimate indulgence.
