Tips for the best Apple Pie

Let the egg come up to room temperature for 15 minutes before cooking so it cooks evenly.
Read the whole method before you start and measure out the 7 ingredients first — it keeps the pace relaxed once the heat is on.
Preheat the oven fully before anything goes in — a cold start changes the texture.

Individual portions: divide into ramekins or a muffin tin and reduce the baking time by about a third.
Vegetable boost: stir in a handful of spinach, peas or diced peppers in the last few minutes of cooking.
Spicier version: add a pinch of chilli flakes or a sliced fresh chilli with the aromatics.
