My Mum's Apple Pie has been a family favorite for generations. The combination of flaky crust and sweet filling makes for a perfect dessert that can be enjoyed anytime of the year. This classic recipe has been passed down through the family, and it never fails to impress. The aroma of apples and cinnamon wafting from the oven will have your mouth watering in no time. Whether served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or enjoyed cold the next day, this apple pie is sure to be a hit.

Instructions

1.Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
2.For crust, beat eggs and sugar in a mixer until light and fluffy. Add the remaining crust ingredients and mix well.
3.Divide the dough into two pieces. Roll one piece out into a large circle to fit a 9-inch pie dish. Place the dough inside the pie dish, trimming the edges to fit.
4.Peel, core, and thinly slice the apples and place them on top of the dough. Sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon.
5.Roll out the second dough and place it over the apples, trimming the edges. Make a few slits on the top crust to allow steam to escape during baking.
6.Bake for about 1 hour or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. Let cool before serving.
