Apple Pie

(Elmali Tart)

Dough:
1/2 cup yogurt
1/2 cup sunflower oil
125 gr (1 stick) butter, unsalted, room temperature
3/4 cup icing sugar
1 tsp baking powder
2 3/4 cup (350 gr) all purpose flour

Filling:
4 Granny Smith apples, peeled, grated
4 tbsp sugar
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp cinnamon
1/3 cup walnuts, crumbled

23 cm (9 inch) pie plate, oiled

Combine all the crust ingredients in a large bowl and divide in two. Wrap half in saran wrap and chill in the freezer for 45 minutes.

Meanwhile, spread the other half in an oiled pie plate with your palm equally. Also spread the dough on top of the edges (picture). Mix all the filling ingredients in a bowl, spread over the dough equally. Take the second half of the dough from the freezer and grate, then gently arrange over the filling.

Preheat the oven to 375 F. Bake for 40 minutes or until the crust is light brown. Immediately sprinkle some icing sugar on top using a small strainer after you take the Apple Pie out of the oven. Serve while still warm with ice cream on top:)
