This apple phyllo pie is way easier to make than the pies you think of when talking about baking pies. Maybe I should say “pie” one more time? Anyways, the phyllo makes a beautiful light and flaky crust to house the warm, maple-y apples and pecans. Recipe and image via Drizzle and Dip.
Ingredients:
4 x phyllo pastry sheets
1/2 cup of sugar
3 star anise pods
1 cinnamon stick
1/2 cup raisins (I used a mixture of sultanas and raisins)
3 slightly heaped cups of cut up apple (peeled, cored, and cut into smallish cubes) – I used Red Cripps which are sweet and tart
1/2 a cup of roughly chopped toasted pecan nuts (+ a few extra for decoration)
2 T maple syrup + 1/4 of a cup for drizzling
+-80g butter melted (in a small dish – in the microwave)
+-1/4 cup of brown sugar for sprinkling
