Ingredients
- 175g Co-op plain flour, plus extra for dusting
- 75g Co-op unsalted butter, chilled, cut into small cubes
- 50g Co-op Irresistible Somerset vintage Cheddar, grated
- 1 Co-op British egg, yolk and white separated
- 20g white breadcrumbs
- 3 Co-op British apples, peeled, cored and sliced
- 40g caster sugar
- 2 tsp lemon juice
Method
- Preheat the oven to 200°C/fan 180°C/Gas 6
- Put the flour and butter in a bowl with a pinch of salt and rub together with your fingertips until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs
- Stir in the cheese
- Mix the egg yolk with 3 tbsp cold water, then stir into the mixture to make a stiff but not sticky dough
- Add more water if needed, then shape into a circle about 2cm thick
- Lightly dust your work surface with flour and roll the pastry out into a 25cm round
- Place on a baking tray lined with greaseproof paper
- Sprinkle the breadcrumbs in the middle of the pastry, leaving a 4cm border around the edge
- Toss the apple in the sugar and lemon juice until all the slices are coated, then pile on top of the breadcrumbs
- Roughly fold the edges of the pastry up and over the fruit, overlapping slightly as you go
- Brush the pastry with the egg white and bake for about 35 mins, until the pastry is crisp and the apple is tender
