Preheat the oven: To 200°C.
Prepare the apples: Peel the apples, remove the core and cut into thin slices.
Mix the ingredients: In a bowl, mix the apples, sugar, melted butter and cinnamon.
Assemble the pie: Roll out the puff pastry on a floured surface and place it in a pie pan.
Filling: Spread the apple filling over the puff pastry.
Finish: Fold the edges of the dough inwards, forming a border. Brush the surface with beaten egg and sprinkle with icing sugar.
Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for about 30-35 minutes, or until the pastry is golden and the filling is bubbly.
Tips:
Apples: You can use whatever type of apple you prefer, but firmer apples, like gala or fuji, tend to keep their shape during cooking.
Cinnamon: Cinnamon is a key spice in this recipe, but you can add other spices like nutmeg or ginger for a different touch.
Variations: For a more sophisticated touch, add a little rum or brandy to the filling. You can also add chopped nuts or raisins.
Serving: Serve the apple pie while it is still warm with a scoop of ice cream or a spoonful of whipped cream.
Extra tip: For a crispier bottom, pierce the base of the puff pastry with a fork before adding the filling.
