Eating apple pie can also improve lung function and respiratory function, which can protect the lungs from severe pollution. Apples also contain flavonoids, natural chemical antioxidants, and polyphenols, which can reduce the risk of lung cancer and avoid lead poisoning.
The fruit for apple pie can be fresh, canned, or dried apples. This will affect the final texture and the time it takes to cook, but it's a matter of opinion as to whether it will affect the flavor of the pie. Dried or preserved apples were originally used only when fresh fruit was not available.
Production Method:
1. Peel and core the apples and cut them into small pieces. Put butter in a non-stick pan and heat it until the butter melts completely.
2. Add the sliced apples to the pot and mix with sugar.
3. Fry the apples. During the frying process, the apples will release water, and more and more water will come out, which is normal. After the water reaches a certain level, it will slowly decrease, and the apple pieces will turn into applesauce. Wait until the applesauce in the pot has reached the desired consistency, and turn off the heat.
4. Cut the butter into small pieces without softening and put them into a small basin. Then, add low-gluten flour and sugar, and knead it into a dough with water.
5. Press the dough into the skin with a thickness of about 0.3 cm, spread the prepared apple filling inside, and remove the excess pie skin at the corners with your hands.
6. Mix egg yolk and water to make egg yolk water, and brush it on the surface of the pie crust.
7. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees and bake for about 30 minutes on the middle layer. In this way, a beautiful apple pie is ready.
Production Skills:
When making apple pie, it is okay not to cut the apples into pieces, as long as they are slightly thinner.
When making it, soak the apple slices in cold boiled water with white vinegar to prevent oxidation and blackening. When frying the apples, use medium and low heat to preserve the nutrition of the apples.
