Method

  • Peel, core and chop up the apples and place in a heated pan.
  • Add the water, sugar and spice, and leave to simmer until the apples are mostly softened and only a few chunks are left.
  • Then add in the raisins and apricots and mix well. Turn off the heat and leave to rest with a lid on the pan until ready.
  • Prepare the work surface with a little flour and roll out the ready made pastry, using a round cutter, making sure the cuts are big enough to fill the baking tray moulds, and press into shape. Let rest for 5 minutes while you preheat the oven to Gas Mark 5 and have a beaten egg and brush ready.
  • Spoon the mixture into the cases and top with a cross of pastry using the egg wash to stick them down. Brush the pastries with the egg wash and put in the centre of the oven for around 25-35 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown.
  • Remove and let rest for a few minutes then turn out onto a wire rack and dust with icing sugar.

    Tips

    • These are definitely served best warm with a small scoop of traditional vanilla ice-cream, or a small scoop of thick channel island cream. Perfect as a cold winter evening snack.

    This is the type of finger food my step father was so good at. I remember watching him make pies and tarts all the time and he made it seem so simple. From a young age I baked tarts and cakes as a mid afternoon hobby, and in this cold winter I rememb Read More
