Apple and almond pie

ingredients

For a 33/43 cm tray Dough:

     150 gr butter + 1 tablespoon lard
     50 g sugar + 2 packages vanilla sugar
     2 eggs
     10 tablespoons water
     Salt 1 knife edge
     600 gr flour

Spreads:

     6 tablespoons oil
     50 g butter
     4 tablespoons flour
     75 gr ground almonds

For the filling:

     2 kg apples
     4 tablespoons sugar + 2 sachets vanilla sugar
     2 teaspoons cinnamon
     3 tablespoons semolina

Preparation

For the dough, mixing the butter and lard, kept at room temperature, with sugar and salt until it becomes foamy and does not feel the sugar. I shortened the sugar mills during mixing.

Incorporate two eggs, then add water and start slowly added flour mixed with baking powder and baking soda.

Form a dough not too hard, sticky and easy to spread.

Let him rest until ready oiled composition.

Almonds, I baked a few minutes in a hot oven, then I ground, but not very fine, we tried to salvage and larger pieces.

We heat the butter and oil and melt the butter and add flour mixture mixed well in the rain, chewing vigorously May leave a few minutes boat on fire, then give him cold.

Divide dough into two parts, but not equal. I usually put more dough in the bottom that you lie down in the pan, as this will be stew and apple stuffing and will not be high as the top. Therefore I try to create uniformity between the sheets, so as fail.

Stretch first sheet, how thin can and grease with a little composition cooled, then sprinkle over half of the sheet, MIGA ground. Pliem other half over almonds and pressed sheet easy, draw and little corners to straighten the sheet.

Brush sheet again and sprinkle over half composition, almonds and so three times or as often as possible.

Do likewise with the other sheet, then give packages refrigerated dough, wrapped in foil until it will strengthen composition with which I anointed.

We deal in the meantime filling.

Wash the apples, remove the stubs and damages them and they go through robt or you have patience, give them grated.

Put them in a pot on the fire along with the sugar and leave them until they become bricks and sugar melts.

Lift the bowl from the heat, add cinnamon and give him cold.

When cool, add semolina syrup depending on format.

Stretching, greased with oil or butter first sheet, add apple composition that cover with the second sheet and give the tray in the oven for 40 minutes at 180 degrees.

Let pie cool from a portion and dusted with sugar.

Bon appetit!
