Directions
  1. Start by preparing the dough. Beat butter to make ointment then add the icing sugar and stir until it is completely absorbed. Then add the egg and mix.

  2. Prepare the applesauce. Peel and cut the apples into small pieces. Put them in a saucepan with the sugar and heat gently for 20min. Tip: if like me you are making too big pieces and it takes time to stew, you can use a ricer after 20min to accelerate the process! Add the cinnamon and mix at the end. Let cool.
  3. Take the dough and spread it. Then place in a buttered pie plate. Compete bores and cut the dough so that it looks sharp. For this to be pretty, I rolled the dough around the edges with my fingers alternately.
