Halloween Pie

Recipe for Halloween pie made with a food processor.

Funny and wonderfully good little apple pies. For Halloween, they are shaped like scary Halloween figures. It is easy to make your own pie dough with a food processor, and the pies are extra good with homemade dough.

Approx. 8 pieces.

Pie Dough:

  • 300 g wheat flour
  • 150 g cold butter
  • 1 pinch of flake salt
  • 2 tbsp icing sugar
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 3 tbsp ice cold water

How to do it:

Pulse the flour, butter and salt in the food processor until fine crumbs. Add the icing sugar and egg yolk, and run the machine for a few seconds. Add the ice cold water a little at a time until it comes together into a dough. Pour onto the counter, gather into a ball. Squeeze flat and wrap in plastic wrap. Put in the fridge for at least 1 hour.

Fill:

  • 2 large and firm red Norwegian apples.
  • 70 g light brown sugar
  • ½ tsp cinnamon
  • 1 egg for brushing

How to do it:

Remove the cores from the apples and cut them into small cubes. About 1x1 cm. Feel free to keep the shell on.

Put apples, sugar and cinnamon in a frying pan. Heat on a medium heat and simmer for 8-10 minutes until the apples are soft. Set aside.

Roll the dough out on a well-floured worktop until the dough is approx. ½ cm thick. Use a gingerbread cookie cutter shaped like a pumpkin, ghost, or other fun Halloween shape. Roll out the dough and place half of the figures on a baking tray lined with baking paper. For the other shapes, you cut out faces on the pumpkins, or suitable shapes on any other figures. First place the bottoms of the pies on the tray. Put some apples in the middle of the dough.

Lightly beat the egg together and brush around the filling, before placing the lids on top. Seal the base and lid by pressing the edges together with a fork.

Knead the remaining dough together again, roll out and cut out several shapes.

Brush the pies with egg. Bake in the middle of the oven at 200 degrees upper and lower heat. Bake for approx. 15 minutes until the pies are golden brown. Cool on a wire rack and serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
