Let’s bake a pie that’s going to make everyone ask for a second slice!
Ingredients:
- 100 ml of milk
- 80 g of all-purpose flour
- 25 g of butter, melted
- 25 g of stevia sweetener (or 50 g of granulated or cane sugar as an alternative)
- 4-5 medium apples, peeled and sliced
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon of baking powder
- A pinch of salt
- Zest and juice of ½ a lemon
Instructions:
- Preheat and Prepare:
- Begin by preheating your oven to 180°C (356°F). Grease a pie dish lightly with some butter or non-stick spray.
- Mix Wet Ingredients:
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter, and eggs. If you’re using stevia, add it here; if you’re opting for sugar, that goes in too. Mix until everything is well combined.
- Combine Dry Ingredients:
- In another bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. This helps incorporate air and ensures there are no lumps.
- Blend Together:
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring continuously to avoid any lumps. Once you have a smooth batter, stir in the lemon zest and juice for that citrusy kick.
- Prepare Apples:
- Peel your apples, remove the cores, and slice them thinly. Toss the slices in a bit of lemon juice to prevent browning and add a tangy flavor.
- Assemble the Pie:
- Arrange the apple slices neatly at the bottom of your prepared pie dish. Pour the batter over the apples, making sure it’s evenly distributed.
- Bake:
- Place the pie in the oven and bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool and Serve:
- Let the pie cool slightly before slicing. This pie is delicious on its own but can also be served with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence.
Enjoy your slice of this ultra-smooth apple pie, a creamy and comforting dessert that’s sure to please any crowd with its soft texture and rich flavors.
