If you’re nostalgic for the apple pie your grandma used to make but want a healthier twist, you’re in for a treat! This gluten-free and refined sugar-free apple pie recipe captures all the delicious flavors without the guilt. Here’s how to make it:
Ingredients:
- 800g gluten-free flour
- 370 ml water
- 350 ml oil
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- Juice of 1 lemon
- Peel of 1 lemon and 1 orange
- Pinch of salt
- 1 egg
Filling:
- 2 kg apples
- Cinnamon
- Vanilla
- 1.5 tablespoons honey (optional)
Instructions:
- Prepare the filling by grating all the apples and cooking them in a saucepan on low heat with the rest of the ingredients until lightly cooked.
- For the dough, combine the gluten-free flour with baking powder and the remaining ingredients until a dough forms. Due to the nature of gluten-free flour, the dough may require slightly more kneading to ensure thorough mixing.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and evenly spread half of the dough in the pan. Spread the apple mixture over the dough, then carefully add the remaining dough on top.
- Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius and bake the pie for approximately 15-20 minutes, ensuring it is cooked but not burnt. Afterward, leave it in the closed oven for an additional 15 minutes to continue baking. Finally, remove from the oven and allow it to cool for 10 minutes.
