Handy Hint

It is very important to chill the pastry before rolling it out.

Method

1. Rub the butter with your fingers until you get a crumbly mixture. Add in cinnamon and sugar. Add the water and bring together into a ball (alternatively you can do this is in a food processor) Wrap in clingfilm and chill for an hour.
2. Mix apples, raisins, sugar and cinnamon into a mixing bowl. Set aside.
3. Preheat the oven to 160°C/gas 3. Roll out the pastry to line a 18cm well greased pie tin. Trim off the excess pastry. Sprinkle breadcrumbs on the base of the pie. Spoon the apple filling into the pie. Roll out the excess pastry. Cut into 2 cm strips. Place the strips on top of the pie made into lattice pattern. Brush with beaten egg.
4. Baked in a preheated oven for 45 minutes. Raise the temperature to 200C/ gas 6 for 10 minutes till the pie is golden brown. Leave to cool.
