3. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet
with parchment paper.

sugar, lemon zest and cinnamon.
5. On a lightly floured surface, roll refrigerated
dough, into a 16" (40 cm) circle. Don't worry if it
comes out a different shape! Transfer pastry to
prepared baking sheet.
6. In middle pastry, pile apples and other fruit in a 9"
(23 cm) circle. Fold pastry up over apples, leaving a
hole in the centre. Apples will show in the middle.
7. Brush pastry with beaten egg and
sprinkle with coarse sugar. Bake in
preheated oven for 20 minutes. Reduce
heat to 375°F (190°C) and continue to
bake for 40-50 minutes, or until crust
is golden and apples are tender. Serve
warm or room temperature and tastes
delicious with ice cream.

Try
colouring
the

drops
of
food
colouring
in
a
small
plastic

This
way,
each

the
pastry
with
a
beaten
egg
has
2
benefits.
Can
your
kids
guess
what

are?
It
holds
the
sugar
in
place
and
it
makes
the
crust
shiny
and
a
beautiful
golden
colour.
What
would
happen
if
you
painted
patterns
with
