Afife Teyze's Apple Pie

Among the first thing I loved when I came to istanbul was this pie.Afife teyze made it.And here I am, presenting her recipe for us all to try...This is not the picture of the pie i cooked for yenge that day...I didnt have halil's telephone at that time.. Hope u all dont mind. I will replace it with the real picture the next time i cook apple pie.

Ingredients

Green sour apples (granny smith) -mayhos tadi?-around 6?
125g butter
refined sugar (pudra sekeri) -250 g "1 packet is enough i think"
2 tablespoon rice flour
1 egg
1 turkish coffee cup water
1 packet baking powder (2 teaspoons?)
Flour (10-15 tablespoon-depending on the dough..am not so sure)
Cinnamon for sprinkling
refined sugar for sprinkling

Steps
-add all
-make a dough
-divide the dough into 2 parts
-roll one part (to make the lower crust)
-slice the apples
-sprinkle some cinnamon all over it
-sprinkle 2-8 tablespoonof refined sugar
-roll the other half of the dough (to make the upper crust)
-make holes all over the upper part of the crust with a fork
-Bake it in the oven..190 celcius till golden brown
-Let the pie cool down on the rack
-turn it upside down
-sprinkle refined sugar on top of it..The sour taste of apple matches pretty well with the sugar

Note:
It is important to make the holes all over the apple pie as the apples will soften and liquid will evaporate
Dont forget the water!! If u have read my blog-the quill of my heart- u will understand why..
If u dont have granny smith apples...use the normal apple..it doesnt matter..
