The Perfect Apple Pie Recipe | Paul Hollywood's Easy Bakes

My delicious Apple Pies, for the full list of ingredients and instructions, see below|:
For the pastry:
275g plain flour
2 tbsp icing sugar
140g cold butter, cut into dice
3-4 tbsp cold water
For the filling:
2 large cooking apples (eg Bramley), peeled, cored and sliced ,I peel quarter then core and slice about 4cm long x 1/2cm
2 eating apples -pink lady or braburn
25g unsalted butter
Juice of a lemon
4 tbsp caster sugar
1 tbsp caster sugar for the top of the pies
Begin by making the pastry. Mix the flour and icing sugar together in a bowl. Add the butter and rub in until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs.
Work in just enough water to bring the pastry together. Gently knead into a ball. Wrap and place in the fridge to rest while you make the filling.
Peel and core the apples, reserving both the core and apples. Chop the cooking apples into chunks approx 4cm x ½ cm. Slice the eating apples into ½ slices. Squeeze lemon juice over the prepared apples to prevent browning. Place the cooking apples into a pan with the butter, sugar and lemon juice. Cook slowly stirring occasionally until the apples fall but still hold their shape. Leave to cool.
Fold the sliced eating apples into the cooked apple.
Heat your oven to 200°C and have a muffin tray ready.
Lightly flour your work surface and roll out the pastry to 2-3mm thick. Cut out 12 circles and line the muffin tray. Gather the off cuts and re roll the pastry cut out 12 smaller circles for the lids.
Spoon the cooled apple filling into the lined muffin cases. Top with the lids and gently seal the edges together.
Make three slits in the top to let the steam out. Sprinkle with caster sugar
Bake for 20 minutes until golden brown. Leave to rest for 15minutes. Enjoy with ice cream, cream or custard.

I know others have voiced a different opinion, but I really appreciate the slow motion, zoomed-in shots!

[@estercraciun1616]

I will definitely bake it, how good the filling looks, an interesting tip cooked apples together with raw diced apples .., be blessed !🙏🙏🙏❤❤🍎🍏.

[@jodybruch829]

Never ever have I heard of using cooked apples with sliced for an apple pie. Fantastic idea.

[@CookUrduTehzeb]

Enjoy yummy recipes. Just visit me. Enjoy God gifted food recipes. Mouth watering and delecious.

[@tinaprice4948]

Already cooked apples? it makes me think its gonna be mushy like applesauce :/

[@martins8587]

​@@tinaprice4948 That's the idea 😊

[@LoneRanger100]

They should be bramleys, and lightly poached in large enough chunks so they don’t get mushy. Drain off. Then cook. It’s the traditional British way. Never heard of raw apples going in, yuk!

[@vamm4546]

How lovely to have grown up around apples trees. Thank you so much for this recipe! Oh my it looks absolutely delicious 😋 I ❤️ Paul Hollywood Bakes!!

[@peredavi]

Very nice. I never thought of muffin tin or mixing cooked and uncooked apples. I’m going to bake up some for my mates at Experimental Aircraft Club meeting.

Thank you Paul for that easy recipe for Apple Pies, my favorite because I love apples, the love you put into it when making it and tasting it with so much charisma, makes it look more delicious and crunchy and I know from your expression that it is so! Congrats! 👏✌🍏🍎😋🤩🤗✨

[@robertastewart2083]

This is my idea of an apple pie where you can taste the apples and buttery pastry. Most modern recipes mask these flavours by adding cinnamon! Thank you .

[@spicerack4397]

Oh, Paul, that looks divine. So simple but speaks to your heart. Why didn't I ever think of baking some of the cooking apples first and mixing with apples I like to eat? Not sure what cooking apples are. In the States, they always advise using Granny Smith's, which are sour and I hate them....so, perhaps those are the ones to be cooked down. I love Honeycrisp and Golden and Red Delicious apples...I prefer a sweeter pie. Never had it with custard or cream. I must say I like a lot of cinnamon in my apple pies, which I will add on my own. I would like to have seen you remove the tarts from the muffin tin...it looked like they would still stick and I would end up with apple crumble. Heh.

[@richardwallace6313]

Jonagold, Braeburn, and Honeycrisp are others recommended for baking, though I would never bake with Honeycrisp--too good fresh.

[@supergran1000]

In the UK, cooking apples are Bramleys. Do you have those in the States?

[@dannya6825]

Making me hungry. They look so good 😋😍

[@dsulvadarius]

After doing a bit of research, I realised you're famous in the U.K.

[@sheetalsingh6982]

😍😍😍 I love it. I want to see all the recipes you maKE.

[@gwynwellliver4489]

Apple pie using slices of Granny Smith's and a piece cheddar cheese with your slice of pie makes a great breakfast!

[@stacyfranks3347]

Love this!

[@juliacawthorn]

Wonderful !! and I get to use my new loose bottom mini cake tin with 12 holes woop! Yaay! fortunately they turned out really good and tasted delicious, thank you for this recipe Mr H xx

[@Protocookswithcheffrank-m1t]

Thank you for your lovely compliment. I hope my recipe was able to help you .

[@jessicaroxanacanalesbizama4629]

Sería maravilloso que saliera la traducción al español, aunque no entiendo nada de inglés trato de seguir las recetas y me resultan. Me encanta Paul. Saludos desde Curicó, Chile.

[@user-xi1wb4vb9m]

These are the cutest pies !! I love it ❤

[@teenastaller8903]

Yumm,! Thanks for the recipe and instruction video. Love apple pie but don’t always want to make a big pie. These look like they might freeze well?

[@rikkidurbin326]

So interesting re mixing the apples. I will try that for sure. One question: As a Canadian I never know which apple to use as a "cooker"! Any ideas? One thing I really miss are Bramley apples. Yum!

[@andreaw236]

Granny Smith is always a good choice in Canada for baking and is easily available! Braeburn and Northern Spy also are good for baking. I will often use three or more varieties in the same pie.

[@rikkidurbin326]

@@andreaw236 Thank you for your suggestions. I have heard about Northern Spy - I will try them next time I bake.

[@leobobie7224]

[@dwow0wowb]

Hi Paul! Could you please upload big size apple pie?🙏🙏I’ve never baked good apple pies. They are always too wet or crust is too thick. Just can’t get it right.🤦‍♀️ Please please share your best normal size apple pie🙏🙏🙏

[@raquelrodriguez5218]

I love your recipe but I love to mix the sugar with cinnamon powder and sprinkle it on top. And by the way you’ve got beautiful blue eyes

[@Levisgenie]

Hi Paul do you use salted or unsalted butter?

[@applepietin4384]

8:19 delicious

[@user-xi1wb4vb9m]

You are adorable!!

[@issychan7447]

I always have apple pie with a bit of vanilla ice cream mmmm

[@charlesmnadeau]

More please!

[@mariagurzau7191]

[@sandraford4235]

We can’t get Bramleys here in U S ,they look delicious

[@amycole8974]

Question about the icing sugar. Here in Canada icing sugar contains corn starch, so my concern is will this affect the pastry in some way. Or did you mean to use confections sugar, which has no corn starch. Love the idea of individual pies never thought of that.

[@leobobie7224]

Hello I’m not here to waste much of your time I just came across your profile on my feed and you seem like a business minded person so I thought I should hit you up with a business proposal.

[@dawndeany9645]

Yummy

Hot apple pie and ice creams... :)

[@couplesmessykitchen2633]

Other versions of apple pies you can find visiting our channel :)

[@bonniekonjevich7574]

I was searching for a great fresh apple cooked filling for my mini Dash pie maker. I don't like pie crust with shortening. Yours are essentially puffed pastry based. T*H*A*N*K*S*!

[@calmdownkaylaapostolicpent7660]

Yes♡

[@timothymcnulty3143]

I did exactly by gram and technique each step it was very crumbly and hard to roll thin. tasted fine just to thick in the shells?

[@juliacawthorn]

😍😍😍

[@cooldude2512]

Would these recipes be in your New upcoming book 🤔

[@amcninch]

The little pies taste great but I struggled to get them out of the baking tray intact - even though I buttered the tray as advised. Any ideas?

[@nova7260]

Hi I'm just a home baker very much inspired by these videos, have you thought of lining your tin with muffin cases and then you can just lift out, I'm going to bake these today and do half lined and half unlined and see how it goes will let you know x

[@falakkhan1357]

​@nova7260 oh that's a good idea, might try it. Or maybe a 2 rectangles of greaseproof paper making a cross underneath the pie so that you can pull it out like a brownie.

[@gingertunstall7739]

Room temperature butter?

[@Joseph-uo3mx]

Could you do a cinnamon roll recipe video please?

[@leobobie7224]

[@daniellesnyder1244]

Love the recipe, and seeing Hollywood baking. Not a fan of the slo-mo editing, super distracting, but otherwise love the videos.

[@dsulvadarius]

Oh! Your last name is Hollywood 😂. I'm gonna watch the video anyway. I hope I enjoy it. Wish me luck.

[@dsulvadarius]

Wow! I'm glad I stayed. I enjoyed the video.

[@johanne6130]

I want a crispy base but what did i do wrong?

[@Protocookswithcheffrank-m1t]

Thank you for your lovely compliment. I hope my recipe was able to help you.

[@carlhansford6880]

No docking??...

[@tinaprice4948]

No cinnamon or nutmeg in with the apples? I have never had an apple pie that didn't have cinnamon in it. :D

[@barbaraannwalsh6974]

Nice simple recipe, nice simple method to, not to keen on the slow motion parts 😂 😂

[@Protocookswithcheffrank-m1t]

Thank you for your lovely compliment. I hope my recipe was able to help you.

[@jeannetterodriguez8770]

🥰❤❤😋mmmmm

[@heklegal]

Why on earth don’t you use an apron? Love from 🇳🇴.

[@patriciaball9159]

.....the slow motion is pretty sexy! 😉....enjoying the step by step videos, and that accent is awesome

[@alasdair8545]

Hi Paul, i know im watching this 2 years later, the thing I just don't understand why people continue to do these things in a small bowl, get a big bowl and give yourself some room to move, i wasn't even in my teens when i noticed this, I'm 62 now and people still do it. I just don't get it,would go for a bath and get into the sink 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@falakkhan1357]

Totally agree lol 😂

[@jeannetterodriguez5728]

❤️🥰😋💯🤝👏👏👏

[@monicahall1625]

Cooked apples, no, no. Get slush pie! Use a sweet apple rue and you get a luscious crisp apple pie. Cut apple slices to appropriate size for correct baking.

[@kellyg9468]

I love all of these Easy Bakes episodes but it would be extremely helpful if there was less slow motion on the close-up shots. It is distracting and sometimes makes it difficult to focus on what Paul is actually doing in those close up shots.

[@CatheadBiscuits]

Ice cream would have gotten you a handshake. Just saying.

[@elsie3255]

so you didn't add any spices at all. interesting

[@wallywombat164]

Paul, i have been following you for years. You still haven't convinced me to enjoy sweet pastry. Sorry mate, not my go.
