Best Apple Pie

Ingredients

450g plain
flour, in addition to extra for tidying

340g
unsalted margarine, chilled, hacked into lumps

1 tbsp
caster sugar, in addition to extra to sprinkle

50ml virus
water

1 unfenced
egg, beaten, to coat

For the
filling

800g
(arranged weight) bramley apples, stripped, cored and slashed into wedges

150g
brilliant caster sugar

¼ tsp ground
mace

Enormous
squeeze ground cinnamon

4 tbsp
cornflour

5 adjusted
tbsp quince jam

Method

For the
baked good, put the flour in a huge blending bowl in with a spot of salt,
include the spread and rub into the flour utilizing your fingertips until the
blend takes after breadcrumbs. Mix through the sugar with a round-bladed blade,
at that point mix in only enough of the water until the batter begins to meet
up in pieces (it shouldn’t be clingy). To make this in a nourishment processor,
whizz the spread and flour together, at that point beat through the sugar and
water until the batter begins to meet up.

Unite the
mixture with your Hands, at that point tip onto a floured surface and give it a
fast work until smooth. Turn it out to an unpleasant square, crease it in
thirds like a letter, give a quarter turn, at that point rehash twice. Envelop
the baked good by stick film and chill for 30-an hour (or see make ahead).

Warmth the
broiler to 190°C/fan170°C/gas 5. Expel the baked good from the ice chest, cut
off 66% (cool the staying third), at that point turn out on a floured surface
to the thickness of a £1 coin. Utilize the baked good to line a 23cm x 5cm
profound tart case with a removable base. Press it into the edges, trim the
abundance, at that point chill (5 minutes in the cooler or 20 minutes in the
ice chest). Line with foil or heating paper, load up with preparing beans or
uncooked rice, at that point daze prepare for 20 minutes. Expel the foil/paper
and beans/rice, at that point cook for 5 minutes or until the base is sandy
shaded with no dark patches.

In an enormous bowl, hurl the apples with the sugar, flavors and cornflour, at that point use to fill the baked good case. Dab the highest point of the apples with quince jam. Reveal the rest of the cake until somewhat greater than the pie. Remove a long, flimsy strip (enough to fit round the baked good case), wet the edge of the prepared baked good case and press the piece of cake on top, tenderly, right around. Brush this with a little water, at that point freely roll the cake for the cover around a moving stick and unroll over the pie, squeezing it delicately onto the strip to seal. Trim any overhanging cake, at that point pleat the edges with your fingers. Shape the trimmings into enhancements, in the event that you like. Cut a steam opening in the focal point of the pie, brush the top with the beaten egg to coat, include the baked good beautifications, at that point coat again and sprinkle with caster sugar.

Put the pie
on a preparing sheet and heat for 40-45 minutes until brilliant and fresh.
Permit to cool (see tips), at that point present with cream or custard.

Sticky
Marmalade roll

Ingredients

Margarine
for lubing

300g
self-raising flour, in addition to extra for tidying

6 tbsp light
muscovado sugar

150g
vegetable or hamburger suet

200ml entire
milk

450g preserves
(we like Frank Cooper’s Oxford jelly)

Icing sugar
for tidying

Custard to
serve

Method

Warmth the
broiler to 200°C/fan180°C/gas 6. Oil a 45cm x 35cm sheet of heating paper and
lay it on a work surface, lubed side up.

Filter the
flour into a huge bowl and mix in the muscovado sugar, suet and a touch of
salt. Include the milk and blend in with a palette blade or metal spoon to
frame a firm mixture.

Tip onto a
daintily floured surface, ply with your Hands for a moment or two, at that
point turn out with a moving pin to frame a square shape about 40cm x 30cm.
Move to the lubed heating paper, at that point spread thickly with the
preserves. Move up firmly from the short end (utilize the preparing paper to
support you), and crush the finishes a little to make it harder for the
preserves to overflow out as it cooks.

Roll the
heating paper firmly around the mixture, at that point enclose by foil,
scrunching the finishes to seal.

Put the move
on a rack in a simmering tin and empty bubbling water into the tin, ensuring
the water doesn’t contact the foil. Prepare for 1 hour 10 minutes or until a
stick drove into the turn turns out with no delicate batter adhered to it, just
jelly. Evacuate the foil and preparing paper, leave for 2 minutes, at that
point cut and present with custard and cups of tea.

Pop Cakes

Ingredients

Sunflower
oil for lubing

12 tsp clear
nectar

425g plain
flour

¼ tsp
preparing powder

¼ tsp salt

200g
granulated sugar

225g
unsalted spread

2 huge
unfenced eggs

1 tsp vanilla
concentrate

For the
icing

150g icing
sugar

Juice ½-1
lemon

Method

At any rate
6 hours before you need to make the cakes (however ideally the day preceding),
gently oil 12 ice 3D square forms, isolate the nectar among the molds, at that
point freeze until strong.

To make the
cakes, heat the stove to 180°C/fan160°C/gas 4. Delicately oil a 12-opening
biscuit pixie cake tin. Blend the flour, heating powder and salt in a bowl and
put in a safe spot. In another enormous bowl, beat the sugar with the spread
utilizing an electric blender until light and gleaming. Include the eggs, each
in turn, beating after every option, at that point include the vanilla. Turn
the blender to low and beat in the flour, in 2-3 increments, until all around
joined into a hardened mixture.

Detach 12 x
1.5cm wads of mixture (utilizing about a large portion of the batter), at that
point press into the bases of the biscuit tin openings. With the remainder of
the batter, make 12 additional balls and keep them helpful. Working rapidly,
evacuate the plate with the nectar 3D squares from the cooler and switch them
out of the plate. Put one over each mass of batter in the tin, at that point
press the rest of the mixture balls over the top, totally encasing the nectar
3D shape so it can’t escape from the pop cake when it softens. Set on the right
track in the stove (or freeze – see make ahead) and prepare for 25-30 minutes
until the pop cakes are fresh and pale brilliant.

Expel from
the stove and leave to cool for 30 minutes. Turn out and leave to cool totally.

Make the
icing by putting the icing sugar into a bowl. Blending continually with a fork
or little whisk, pour in enough lemon juice to make a thick icing (you’ll need
less squeeze than you might suspect). Dunk the pop cakes into the icing so the
tops are uniformly secured, at that point hold topsy turvy for a couple of
moments to permit the abundance to trickle off. Dissipate with popping sweets
and sugar strands (in the event that utilizing), leave for 20 minutes to set
the icing, at that point serve.

Butter beer

Ingredients

3 tbsp
advocaat

4 tsp toffee
vodka (from Ocado and thedrinkshop.com)

Yellow
nourishment shading (discretionary)

A thumb-size
bit of new ginger

Alcoholic
ginger brew, to serve

Method

Put the advocaat
in a 16 ounces glass with toffee vodka and a couple of drops of the yellow
shading.

Coarsely
grind the ginger into a perfect J-material or square of muslin, get together
the fabric around it and crush a portion of the juice into the glass (what amount
is up to you – we like it very red hot).

Top with the ginger brew and serve while there’s as yet a head on top.

Bruce Bogtrotters chocolate cake

Ingredients

330ml entire
milk (gold top is ideal)

200g dim
chocolate (around 60 percent cocoa solids), broken into pieces

65g
self-raising flour

200g ground
almonds

55g cocoa
powder

1 loaded tsp
preparing powder

165g
unsalted margarine, mollified

330g light
muscovado sugar

1 tsp
vanilla concentrate

4 medium
unfenced eggs, daintily beaten

For the icing

330ml
twofold cream, in addition to extra if necessary

500g dull
chocolate (60 percent cocoa solids), finely hacked

200g icing
sugar

130g
daintily salted spread, dissolved and cooled

Method

To make the
icing, heat the cream and chocolate together in an enormous heatproof bowl set
over a dish of scarcely stewing water (don’t let the water contact the bowl).
Mix from time to time until softened and smooth. Expel from the warmth, leave
to cool to room temperature, at that point, utilizing an electric hand blender,
beat in the icing sugar. Include the liquefied spread in a flimsy stream,
beating constantly, until consolidated. On the off chance that the icing looks
oily, include a glug more cream, beating the blend to unite it back. When all
the margarine has been joined, spread the icing with a bit of stick film
contacting the surface, and put some place cool (however not the ice chest) for
4-5 hours to solidify.

Warmth the
broiler to 180°C/fan160°C/gas 4. Daintily oil and completely line 3 x 23cm
sandwich tins (see tip) with preparing paper and put in a safe spot.

For the
wipe, heat 100ml of the milk with the chocolate in a bowl set over a container
of scarcely stewing water (don’t let the water contact the bowl), mixing once
in a while, until the chocolate has dissolved. Cool marginally.

Filter the
flour, almonds, cocoa and preparing powder into a bowl with a decent spot of
salt. In another huge blending bowl, beat the margarine with the sugar
utilizing an electric hand blender until pale and delicate. Beat in the
vanilla, at that point the eggs, a piece at once, rotating with a spoonful of
the flour blend to stop the blend turning sour. When all the eggs are joined,
rush in the chocolate milk, at that point overlay in the remainder of the flour
blend in with a metal spoon or inflatable whisk. At long last, overlap in the
staying entire milk.

Partition
the cake player equally among the 3 tins. Heat for 30-35 minutes until a stick
drove into the center tells the truth. Leave to cool in the tins for 10 minutes,
at that point turn out and leave to cool totally on wire racks.

When the
icing has set, put one of the wipes on a cake stand or platter. Spread with a
thick layer of icing, top with a subsequent wipe, at that point rehash,
wrapping up by spreading icing everywhere throughout the top and sides (see
tips). Leave some place cool for the icing to set, at that point cut and serve.
