O Que Você Precisa Saber
- Lemon juice prevents enzymatic browning of the apples and balances the natural sweetness released during baking. - The incisions in the puff pastry lid allow steam to escape, preventing the top crust from becoming soggy. - The egg brushed over the dough ensures clear caramelization and a shiny golden finish when baking in the oven.
Ingredients
Main Course
- 3 large apples peeled and sliced
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon of ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons of lemon juice
- 1 package of puff pastry (or pie crust)
- 1 beaten egg (for brushing)
Instructions
Main Course
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
In a bowl, mix the sliced apples with sugar, cinnamon, and lemon juice.
Roll out the puff pastry on a floured surface and line the pie pan with half of it.
Distribute the apple mixture over the batter in the pan.
Cover the pie with the other half of the dough, closing the edges well.
Brush the surface of the pie with the beaten egg.
Make small cuts on the top to allow steam to escape.
Place in the oven and bake for about 35 minutes or until the dough is golden.

Chef Tips
Variations
- Add raisins hydrated in rum or thin slices of walnuts to the apple filling before closing the pie. - Sprinkle granulated sugar mixed with cinnamon over the egg-washed puff pastry to create a crunchy crust. - Add fine shavings of nutmeg and ground ginger to the sugar mixture to accentuate the spiced notes.
Substitutions
- As maçãs gala ou fuji podem ser substituídas por maçãs verdes tipo granny smith para maior acidez e firmeza. - O açúcar refinado pode ser trocado por açúcar mascavo ou demerara para conferir notas tostadas de caramelo. - A massa folhada pronta pode ser substituída por massa podre tradicional feita com farinha de trigo e manteiga.
How to Store
Keep in a closed container under refrigeration for up to four days. To recover the crunchiness of the flaky layers of the topping, heat slices in a preheated oven at 160 degrees for about eight minutes.
Can You Freeze It?
Freeze the already assembled and raw pie, well wrapped in plastic wrap for up to ninety days. Bake directly in the preheated oven at one hundred and ninety degrees without defrosting, adding fifteen minutes to the oven time.
What to Serve With
Serve warm accompanied by a scoop of artisanal vanilla ice cream, classic English cream flavored with vanilla, a spoonful of freshly whipped cream, or a steaming cup of full-bodied espresso without added sugar.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why did the base of the puff pastry become damp?
The excess liquid released by the apples softens the base; Bake the pie positioned on the bottom rack of the oven.
Which apple variety is ideal for this recipe?
Firm-fleshed apples like fuji or granny smith maintain the structure of the slices without dissolving during baking.
Can I assemble the pie with previously cooked apples?
Não é necessário; sliced raw and thin, they cook in their own juice and maintain a pleasant texture in the bite.
What are the cuts on the top of the dough for?
They act as steam escape chimneys, preventing the lid from puffing up, bursting, or becoming soggy.
