Laura007 Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 ok everyone, suggestions please for a nice addition for shortcrust pastry to go on an apple pie. i thought the addition of cinnamon would be ok, or to maybe add some cheese. we had an apple pie in canada that had layers of monteray jack in with the apple and it was just fab. suggestions please all knowing ones.

Cinnamon Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Cinnamon sounds good to me,but then it is my favourite! I heard that crumbly sharp white cheese is good in apple pie crust - maybe a Cheshire or something????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craftyhunnypie Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 I'd be tempted to either add a jar of mincemeat like mince pies at Christmas, or I would do a savoury pie and add sausagemeat! Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helly Welly Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 If you're going to add cheese, i'd go for goats cheese personally. Sultanas and cinnamon is the standard. Mincemeat sounds gorgeous, this is the wrong time of night to be getting hungry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jan_novice_chicken_keeper Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 Grate 2oz of strong cheddar into the pastry itself. Yummy. Jan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tara.F Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 Orange. trust me, orange juice in with the apple and orange zest in the pastry, it's just lovely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura007 Posted May 28, 2007 Author Share Posted May 28, 2007 i tried cheese in the pastry, its ok, but the sweet versions are definatley the way to go for me!!! im getting ready for the orange zest one next. thanks everyone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
