Traditional North American apple pie
I first learned about apple pie in the American movie "American Pie". Later, I loved watching the American TV series "Desperate Housewives" and "Sex and the City" and saw various pies countless times. Later, I came to major supermarkets in Canada. There are various pies, and the most common one is apple pie. I like its sweet and sour taste, and the mixture of cinnamon and apple, which made me fall in love with it immediately.

Steps for Traditional North American apple pie
1
Method of pie skin: 1. Use the "Milk Cool Thread" to scrape the unsalted butter into silk. 2. Sift the flour, add sugar, salt, and then mix in the butter. Rub with your hands to fully mix the flour and butter into coarse grains, and no large butter grains can be left inside. 3. Pour in appropriate amount of milk, mix the flour into dough, and rub it into dough as much as possible (don't knead it too much, which will affect the taste of the pie skin) 4. Divide the dough into small portions, wrap it with plastic wrap, and place it in the refrigerator for refrigeration.

Pie the skin into the baking pan: 1. Take out a dough after one hour. At this time, the dough has moderate hardness and is convenient for rolling. Sprinkle some white flour, roll the dough out from the middle with a rolling pin, roll it into a slightly larger dough than the baking pan (I use a 6-inch disposable baking pan)3
Turn down the baking sheet to cover the dough, slowly buckle the dough into the baking sheet, and then trim the edge with the front knife to complete. Put it in the refrigerator and refrigerate.
4
Take another piece of dough and roll it into dough, then cut it into small uniform strips (because I need to make a flower basket style and need long strips of dough to weave a flower basket) and set aside for use.
5
Apple Filling Practice Cut the apples into slices, not too small. Place the apples in the container and add the sugar, cinnamon powder, lemon juice and salt. It takes at least half an hour to collect apple juice spilled from apples (the amount of apple juice determines the length of time)
6
Pour the collected apple juice into a small pot, add butter, and melt.
7
Then mix the apple pieces, oatmeal, and starch to thicken.
8
Make a flower basket and bake. Place the mixed apple filling on a baking sheet covered with the lower pie crust.
9
Spread the cut long pie skins evenly on the upper layer, first laying them vertically, then passing them horizontally and horizontally through the vertical strips to form a flower basket shape.
10
Add a little amount of water to stir the egg yolk to form an egg liquid and brush it evenly on the pie skin.11
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees, put the apple pie into the oven, bake at 200 degrees for 10 minutes, and then turn to 180 degrees for 40 minutes. (The oven temperature and time depend on each oven and the size of the apple pie, please control it yourself)

It is best to cool the roasted apple pie and cut it into slices. The taste improves after cooling.
