Ingredients

  • For the Pie Crust

  • 1 Nestlé MILKMAID Mini

  • 2½ cups (250 g) maida (all-purpose flour)

  • ½ tsp salt

  • 100 g butter

  • ⅓ cup cold water

  • For the Apple Filling

  • 4 cups apples, peeled and sliced

  • 2 tsp brown sugar

  • 1 tsp cinnamon powder

  • 1 tbsp lime juice

  • 2 tbsp butter

  • 1 tbsp maida

Directions

  • How to Make Apple Pie (Step-by-Step Guide)
  • Step 1: Prepare the Pie Crust
  • Preheat the oven to 180°C. Lightly grease an 8-inch loose-bottom pie dish and dust it with flour.
  • Combine flour and salt, then rub the butter into the mixture until it resembles breadcrumbs.
  • Add cold water gradually to form a soft dough. Wrap in cling film and refrigerate for 15–20 minutes.
  • Roll out the chilled dough on a floured surface and cut a circle 2 inches wider than the dish. Set leftover dough aside.
  • Fit the rolled dough into the pie dish, trimming excess to match the rim.
  • Prick the base and sides with a fork. Bake for 15–20 minutes or until lightly golden. Remove and cool.
  • Step 2: Make the Filling
  • Mix apple slices with brown sugar, cinnamon, lime juice, and 1 tbsp maida.
  • Spread the mixture in the baked crust and pour Nestlé MILKMAID over it. Dot with half of the butter.
  • Step 3: Add the Lattice & Bake
  • Roll out the reserved dough into a ¼-inch thick sheet and cut into strips.
  • Arrange the strips in a lattice pattern over the filling.
  • Brush with the remaining butter and bake for 25–30 minutes until golden brown.
  • Step 4: Cool & Serve
  • Allow the pie to cool completely before removing it from the dish. Slice and serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

  • Pro Tips for the Best Apple Pie
    Use a blend of tart and sweet apples for balanced flavor.
    Keep the dough ingredients cold to ensure a flaky crust.
    Roll the dough gently to avoid toughening it.
    Avoid overfilling; leave an inch of space around the edges.
    Preheat the oven fully for an evenly baked crust.
    Use a foil shield if the crust edges brown too quickly.

FAQs About Apple Pie Easy Recipe

1. Do I need to pre-cook the apples?

No. The apples soften naturally while baking, giving you a perfect, tender filling.

2. Can I use canned apples?

Yes, but fresh apples give superior taste and texture. Adjust sugar and seasoning if the canned apples are already sweetened.

3. Why is my apple pie dry?

Too much flour in the dough can dry the crust. If the dough doesn’t hold when pinched, add a bit more water.

4. Why does my apple pie turn watery?

Insufficient baking time can cause extra moisture. Bake until the filling bubbles and allow the pie to cool fully to set.

5. How should I store apple pie?

Refrigerate the pie in an airtight container. It stays fresh for up to four days. Always check appearance and smell before serving leftovers.
