This recipe is very simple and fast to make. Everyone at home will be happy to taste it. Do not hesitate to try 😉 You can put everything you like in your pie instead of apricot jam and grated coconut, but trust me, this mix is perfect.

5. Cut 8 cm diameter rounds in shortcrust pastry dough. Put 3 rounds next to each other by slightly overlapping them on the edges (see video above).

7. Put sliced apple on the dough. Do not hesitate to put enough, it will be yummier.
