This recipe is from a Hungarian friend. It’s similar to our apple pie or apple crisp. It’s a wonderful dessert with flaky crust and nice apple filling.

1: 1and 3/4C all purpose flour (275g), 1/4t salt, 1/3C sugar (70g);
2: 2 sticks butter (225g);
3: 2 egg yolks, 2T water, mix together;
Filling:
4: 6 Gala apples, 2T lemon juice;
5: 1/4C raisins (40g), 1/2C chopped walnuts (50g), 1t vanilla extract;
6: 1/3C sugar (70g), 1/4C all purpose flour (40g), 3/4t ground cinnamon;
7: 3T butter, melted;
Other:
8: 4T bread crumbs.
9: 1 egg yolk with 1t water, mix together.
Cooking directions：

2: Pre-heat oven to 375°F/190°C while making apple filling. Peel apples, core, and grate. Add all filling ingredients and mix well.
3: Divide dough to 2/3 and 1/3. Roll each part separately in a light floured surface. Line a 8″x12″ glass baking pan with 2/3 dough, sprinkle with bread crumbs. Pour in apple filling and top with stripes cut from smaller part of rolled dough. Brush with egg yolk mixture. Bake at 375°F/190°C for 50 minutes until golden. Serve lukewarm or cold.
Hi there! This post couldn’t be written any better! Reading through this post reminds me of my previous room mate! He always kept talking about this. I will forward this article to him. Pretty sure he will have a good read. Thank you for sharing!
I have been absent for a while, but now I remember why I used to love this blog. Thanks, I will try and check back more often. How frequently you update your web site?
When I originally commented I clicked the “Notify me when new comments are added” checkbox and now each time a comment is added I get three emails with the same comment. Is there any way you can remove me from that service? Many thanks!
I do consider all of the ideas you have offered in your post. They are very convincing and can certainly work. Still, the posts are too quick for novices. May just you please lengthen them a bit from subsequent time? Thank you for the post.
