Rustic Apple, rhubarb and strawberry pie
Auth: Lorena
Recipe type: Dessert
Cuisine: Rustic
Prep time:  20 mins
Cook time:  1 hour 10 mins
Total time:  1 hour 30 mins
Serves: 8
 
An easy pastry recipe that can be adapted for savoury tarts and pies. It has a lovely soft crumb, like fine shortbread. I make it in the food processor but you can rub in the cold butter with your fingers quickly.
Ingredients
  • PASTRY
  • 200 grams plain flour
  • 125 grams unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons icing sugar mixture
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 2-3 tablespoons cold water
  • FILLING
  • 3 medium size apples, peeled, cored and sliced
  • ½ lemon, juice and zest
  • 1 bunch rhubarb, washed, trimmed and cut into 5cm lengths
  • ½ punnet strawberries, rinsed, hulled and cut in half
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
  • ½ cup regular sugar
  • 1 teaspoon plain flour
  • ⅓ cup slivered almonds (optional)
  • ⅓ cup caster sugar for sprinkling
  • icing sugar to garnish
  • cream, custard or ice cream to serve
Instructions
  1. To make the pastry:
  2. Place flour, icing sugar and butter into the bowl of a food processor.
  3. Pulse until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs.
  4. Add the egg yolk and a couple of tablespoons of water.
  5. Pulse quickly and then turn out onto a lightly floured bench.
  6. Press the mixture into a ball, it should form a firm dough and stick together. If not, you may need a little more water, not more than a tablespoon at a time or it can get sticky and unmanageable.
  7. Press dough into a flat disc, wrap and refrigerate whilst you prepare your filling.
  8. The recipe work best if you can chill this for ½ hour or more so I often make this ahead of time.
  9. Apple, rhubarb and strawberry filling:
  10. Place rhubarb, apple slices,lemon juice and zest into a saucepan. Cook gently for 5 minutes.
  11. Add ½ cup sugar and vanilla and heat till sugar dissolves.
  12. Set aside to cool.
  13. Roll out your pastry:
  14. Using a rolling pin, roll out the pastry into a loose circle till it's about 35cm across.
  15. Butter a 20cm glass or metal pie dish and drape pastry into the dish, letting the excess pastry hang over the edges. Place it on to a metal oven tray and chill for 15 minutes to allow the pastry to relax again. (It is stressful work being rolled flat you know!)
  16. Heat the oven to 190C whilst you assemble the pie.
  17. Fill the pie crust with the cooked apple and rubharb mix, sprinkle with teaspoon of plain flour.
  18. Place cut strawberries on top.
  19. Sprinkle with slivered almonds.
  20. Bring edges of pastry up and over the pie in soft folds.
  21. Sprinkle the top of the pie with the extra caster sugar.
  22. Place pie with the oven tray underneath in the oven (to catch any drips) and bake for 20 minutes when it should be golden. Cover the top of the pie loosely with foil to prevent scorching and to cook the bottom evenly. Cook a further 20 minutes and remove the foil, if the pie needs a little more cooking and browning leave it in there a little longer. My pies took an hour to cook nicely, could be the size of my oven or the position of the rack, every oven is different!
  23. Serve warm, dusted with a little icing sugar and some cream, ice cream or custard for the ultimate indulgence. Enjoy!

Vaccines are here! Yay! 💉 It’s the first st Vaccines are here!
Yay!

💉

It’s the first step out of this pandemic and maybe back to normal? There’s still a way to go so no doubt we’ll need masks again: for uni, for commuting, for shopping.

💝

To celebrate Australia’s vaccine roll out I ordered some cute little pins to give away to you lovely people who ordered masks and helped everyone to stay safe.

I’ve got 5 THANKS SCIENCE pins to give away with a free mask. Comment below if you’d like one. Must be a follower. If more than 5 comment I’ll have to use a random generator thingy. That’s it. 

Thank you for believing in science 🙏

Hey, I’m back from my break. We wore our masks i Hey, I’m back from my break. We wore our masks indoors, even when we were the only ones. Better to be safe than sorry! My hands have recovered and I’m ready to fill those custom mask orders that you’ve sent me since last Friday.

✂️

First up will be a couple of these gorgeous fussy cut Tula Pink Elizabeth masks. I need to count how many more motifs are left in this piece of fabric cause, once it’s gone, it’s gone!

💐

A big Thank You to my Crafty Panda who contacted customers and sent out parcels whilst I was away. What a superstar ✨

Hey lovely peeps, hope you’re all well! Thought Hey lovely peeps, hope you’re all well!

Thought I’d pop in to remind you that there is a right way to wear your masks.

🌸

You’ll notice that the top has a slight peaked edge. That’s designed to sit over your nose. The scooped edges dip down and help fit around your nose. 

The straight side is the bottom, and that should fit snuggly under your chin. 

🥽

A well fitted mask should feel comfortable, have flat sides against your cheeks and cause minimal fogging of glasses. If you struggle to get a good fit, consider a different size or use something like Hollywood Tape on the inside of your mask. 

🤓

If the fogging is a persistent issue and drives you nuts, you can order the added nose bridge. These are removable for washing and extra pieces are included with your order in case they break. They need to be added before the mask is constructed though. I can’t retro fit them, sorry!

I’m happy to answer your questions here or via DM.

In the meantime, as you were! Keep physically distancing, washing your hands and MASK UP!
😘
Just a friendly reminder that I’m taking a week Just a friendly reminder that I’m taking a week off custom orders. Any custom orders placed now won’t be made till after the 16th January.

💖

There are still 100+ masks Ready To Ship. But it’s a lucky dip situation. My Crafty Panda will do her best to fill your requests if you leave a note with your online order 🙏

Stay safe and relaxed everyone. We’re going to be ok as long as we look after each other xx
Lots of you have ordered 5 masks. One for each day Lots of you have ordered 5 masks. One for each day of the work week! That’s very clever really. 

🧼

Do you know how to look after your masks? They need to be washed and dried completely. I recommend a warm wash with detergent, by hand is ok as long as you get it nice and sudsy. Then rinse well and hang them to dry, in the sun if you can. Finally, press them with a hot iron to make them crisp and flat. This helps repel water droplets on the outside and the boxed shape keeps the mask off your lips. 

🧺

Washing, drying and ironing your masks is crucial if you wear them often. It will help prevent skin blemishes and infection. 

📛 Do not iron the plastic beads on the ties!

Thank you for all your lovely messages when you re Thank you for all your lovely messages when you receive your masks. That’s really what keeps me going 🤗

Meanwhile... I’m still working hard to finish all your orders. Wish I could clone myself.

I’m going to take a break from mask making next week. I think the initial rush has slowed down. There are still plenty of masks ready to ship. But I won’t be making custom from this Friday for a week. 

If you have your heart set on a custom mask, order today or tomorrow please.

I’ll be uploading photos of ready to ship masks to help you choose. The shipping department (aka my kids) will still be processing orders.

💚

Not really, but it does speed things up using all three machines at once, each one set up with a different colour thread. Then I get to play musical chairs .
Why didn’t I think of that earlier?

They are not my favourites but I’ll do whatever it takes if it means you will wear a mask!
