Steps
Step 1
Rub the measured 125 g cold lid-pastry butter into flour, sugar and salt, then add only enough cold water to bind.
Step 2
Chill 30 minutes.
Step 3
Roll to a 3 mm sheet slightly wider than the fruit dish; keep cold until fruit is ready.
Step 4
Heat oven to 185 °C and grease a 23 cm deep pie dish with the separate 15 g butter. Layer apples with brown sugar, lemon zest and juice, cinnamon and cloves.
Step 5
Drape cold pastry over the fruit, seal to the dish edge and cut two small steam vents.
Step 6
Bake about 40–50 minutes until the lid is golden and apple juices bubble.
Step 7
Rest 15 minutes and spoon into bowls with crust pieces.
