Toffee Apple Pie

The nights are drawing in and a good stodgy pudding is what we all need, good old comfort food. This pie is perfect for those moments when you don't really feel like making much, or if you have little time, but still want a home-made pudding. The recipe is so simple, in fact I feel a bit of a fraud even calling it a recipe at all as there are only four ingredients! If you serve this up to your family they will think that you've been slaving away for hours.

Toffee Apple Pie

8 medium eating apples (I used gala)
1 200g bag of wrapped toffees
250g puff pastry
1 egg, beaten

• Core & slice the apples into 8 (I don't bother to peel them)
• Place the apples in a large microwavable bowl and cover with clingfilm
• Microwave for 8 minutes
• Drain the apples & place them in the pie dish
• Place the toffees amongst the apples, spreading them around
• Roll the pastry out until it's slightly larger than the pie dish
• Brush around the edge of the dish with beaten egg
• Place the pastry on and press down at the edge
• Brush with beaten egg and bake in a 200C oven for approx 15-20 minutes, until golden brown

Serve hot

perfect with a scoop of Kelly's Clotted Cream & Honeycomb ice cream.
