Apple Crumble Pie cum Tarts

I had never expected myself to bake any pie... But to my surprise... I did it!!!!

I was rather glad with the outcome of the pie... Well, in fact, it is rather easy as it is...

Apple Crumble Pie cum Tarts

Here are the clearer pictures, step by step as I had made during the whole process of the pie cum tarts.

Pardon me for the many pictures I took and posted up, cos it might be my 1st & last attempt??? hehehehe

The pastry tart crust The pastry pie crust
Pricked with holes before baking.

The crust was baked for about 20-25mins.

Filled up with the apple & milk fillings.

The crust & fillings were baked for another 10-15mins before I filled the pie/tarts with the crumbles.

Back to the oven for another 15-25mins.

And here we have, the tarts are ready while the pie is still in the oven due to the bigger tart mould size.

Dusted with icing sugar.

Just gotta try it... And it's GOOOOOOD!!!

Okie, the pie is now ready!!!!

Let's check it out....

It is as good as the tarts!!!

I have to checked if it is fully baked inside...

Yes it is baked!!! Yipee!!!

Can't help it but I ate half a tart and a slice of the pie...

Simply sooooooo gooooooood......

Apple Pudding Filling

(A) 40g butter, 70g castor sugar, 1/4 tsp cinnamon, 3 green apple(diced), 50g sultanas

(I omitted sultanas, and used 2.5 apples, but the apple were not enough. So if you omitted the same as me, perhaps you can use about 4-4.5 apples.)

(B) 140g whipping cream, 1/2 tsp vanilla essence, 2 eggs

Method

Pour A into a pot & cook over medium low heat for abt 10 mins, until the apple softens.

Divide into equal portions and place A into the baked pastry.

Mix B until well combined and filter it, divide into equal portions, pour it into the apple tarts/pie.

Baked at 180 degC for 8-10mins until half cooked.

Crumble

80g plain flour, 2tbsp brown sugar, 50g butter(melted), 40g chopped walnut

Method

Mix all the crumble ingredients until fluffy.

Sprinkle it onto the half baked tarts/pie.

Bake at 180degC for another 15-25mins.
