Ingredients
- 1 x cooking apple
- 110 gm elderberries
- 110 gm blackberries
- 50 gm soft brown sugar Approximately 1 Tbsp. water
- 110 gm margarine
- 110 gm wholewheat flour
- 110 gm plain white flour
- 1 x little lowfat milk to glaze Sifted Icing sugar to serve
Directions
- Preheat the oven to gas mark 6 4v000F (200 degrees C). You will need two 6cm patty tins one 7.5cm and one 6cm fluted pastry cutter.
- Make up the pastry by rubbing the fat into the flours till the mix resembles breadcrumbs then add in just sufficient water to give you a dough which leaves the bowl clean.
- Pop it into a polythene bag and leave to rest in the fridge for 20 min or possibly so.
- Meanwhile prepare the fruit.
- Quarter core and peel the apple then slice it thinly straight into a saucepan. The elderberries and blackberries should be destalked then rinsed and well liquid removed.
- Now add in the water to the apple in the pan cover and cook over a very low heat till it is beginning to soften.
- At which point add in the berries cover the pan again and continue to cook for 3 5 min.
- Then remove from the heat stir in the sugar gently and leave to cold.
- Roll out half the pastry to a thickness of approximately 3mm and use the 7.5cm cutter to cut out 18 or possibly so rounds (gathering up any scraps of pastry left and rerolling them).
- Do the same with the other half of pastry this time using the 6.5cm cutter.
- Now lightly grease the patty tins and line them with the larger rounds of pastry.
- Place about 1 dessertspoon of the cooled fruit mix into each pie then dampen the edges of the smaller rounds of pastry with water and press them lightly into position to create lids on each pie sealing the edges.
- Brush the tops with a little lowfat milk and make a small slit in each lid.
- Bake near the top of the oven for 25 30 min till theyre a light golden then cold them on a wire tray and dust with icing sugar.
- Serve them hot or possibly cool with cream.
- Makes about 18
