Answer 1

Pre-Baked Apple Pie

Crust

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

4 tsp. sugar

1/4 tsp. salt

14 Tbsp. (1 stick & 6 Tbsp.) cold butter, cubed

1 large egg, lightly beaten with 2 Tbsp. cold water

Filling

2 Tbsp. freshly squeezed lemon juice

3 lbs baking apples

2/3 cup sugar, plus more for sprinkling on top

1/4 cup unsalted butter

1/4 tsp. cinnamon

1/2 tsp. nutmeg

1 large egg, lightly beaten

The Crust

Make the dough by hand. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt. Using your fingers, work the butter into the dry ingredients until it resembles yellow corn meal mixed with bean sized bits of butter. (If the flour/butter mixture gets warm, refrigerate it for 10 minutes before proceeding.) Add the egg and stir the dough together with a fork or by hand in the bowl. If the dough is dry, sprinkle up to a tablespoon more of cold water over the mixture.

Make the dough in a food processor. With the machine fitted with the metal blade, pulse the flour, sugar, and salt until combined. Add the butter and pulse until it resembles yellow corn meal mixed with bean size bits of butter, about 10 times. Add the egg and pulse 1 to 2 times; don't let the dough form into a ball in the machine. (If the dough is very dry add up to a tablespoon more of cold water.) Remove the bowl from the machine, remove the blade, and bring the dough together by hand.

Form the dough into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate until thoroughly chilled, at least 1 hour.

The Filling

Put the lemon juice in a medium bowl. Peel, halve, and core the apples. Cut each half into 4 wedges. Toss the apple with the lemon juice. Add the sugar and toss to combine evenly.

In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the apples, and cook, stirring, until the sugar dissolves and the mixture begins to simmer, about 2 minutes. Cover, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook until the apples soften and release most of their juices, about 7 minutes.

Strain the apples in a colander over a medium bowl to catch all the juice. Shake the colander to get as much liquid as possible. Return the juices to the skillet, and simmer over medium heat until thickened and lightly caramelized, about 10 minutes.

In a medium bowl, toss the apples with the reduced juice and spices. Set aside to cool completely. (This filling can be made up to 2 days ahead and refrigerated or frozen for up to 6 months.)

Cut the dough in half. On a lightly floured surface, roll each half of dough into a disc about 11 to 12 inches wide. Layer the dough between pieces of parchment or wax paper on a baking sheet, and refrigerate for at least 10 minutes.

Place a rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat the oven to 375˚ F.

Line the bottom of a 9-inch pie pan with one of the discs of dough, and trim it so it lays about 1/2 inch beyond the edge of the pan. Put the apple filling in the pan and mound it slightly in the center. Brush the top edges of the dough with the egg. Place the second disc of dough over the top. Fold the top layer of dough under the edge of the bottom layer and press the edges together to form a seal. Flute the edge as desired. Brush the surface of the dough with egg and then sprinkle with sugar. Pierce the top of the dough in several places to allow steam to escape while baking. Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.

Bake the pie on a baking sheet until the crust is golden, about 50 minutes.

Answer 5

This is a French recipe I got from a friend.  It is called an Almond Pie.  It is not a pie, in fact I have no idea what to call it.  Here goes.

CRUST: 130 grams flour, 100 grams Sugar, 100 grams melted butter, 2 eggs and a small spoon of baking soda.

MIX everything and spread in a pan or mold.  Bake in 350f oven until is starts to color.  While it is baking make the almond preparation.

ALMOND MIX:  In a pan, melt 100grams of butter.  Add 100 grams sugar, 125 grams of sliced almonds, 5 spoons of milk.  Mix all this together until having a thick texture (about 6-7min) or until the sugar has melted.  

Take the crust out of the oven and spread the almond mix on it.  Return it to the oven until the almonds caramelize on the top.  

That is just the way I got it.  It is great.  I added a little almond flavoring the second time I made it.  It got raves everywhere I took it.  Works for brunch too.

Answer 8

This is a White Almond Sour Cream Cake- It's WONDERFUL. (I halved the recipe so you wouldn't have enough cake for 40 people, LOL. You also don't have to use the almond- I used a yellow cake mix and use butter flavoring in place of the almond and it's GREAT also!

    * 1 (18 ounce) box white cake mix (Betty Crocker or Pillsbury)

    * 1 cup all-purpose flour

    * 1 cup granulated sugar

    * 3/4 teaspoon salt

    * 1 1/3 cups water

    * 1/8 cup vegetable oil

    * 1 teaspoon real vanilla

    * 1 teaspoon almond extract

    * 1 cup sour cream

    * 4 large egg whites

Directions

      1 Place all dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl and stir together with a wire whisk.

   2.Add the remaining ingredients and beat on medium speed for 2 minutes.

   3.Pour into greased and floured cake pans, filling each pan a little over half full.

   4.Lightly tap cake pans on counter to bring air bubbles to top.

   5.Bake in preheated 325° F oven until cake tests done.

1 cup sugar

1/2 cup SWEET butter

2. Spoon batter into spring form pan. ( I spray it with Pam and then dust with

flour)

3. Cover the top with plum halves kin side up. Sprinkle lightly with mixture of

sugar and cinnamon (about a tablespoon or so) Then cut a lemon in half and

squeeze the juice over it

4. Bake at 350 for about an hour (I usually check it after 45-50

mins...sometimes it is done and sometimes it needs the full hour)

Answer 10

oooo! I do it is soooo good and easy!

I just call it a starwberry dessert and i am giving you my instructions so they wont be like out a book perfect or anthing.

ok first you have to make the crust. Its sugar cookie crust! So you can either buy the sugar cookies in the tube and flatten them out into a crust or make it from scratch.(cant tell you how to make it from scratch though!)  BAke the cookie crust on 350 for 10 minuets or whatever the directions would say if you were just making the cookies normal!

Then you have to get the strawberry jello and make it by following those directions. Then dont let the jello sit while it is still kinda runny pour it onto the crust.

Then cut up fresh strawberries and pile them onto the runny jello! Then you let it sit in the fridge until the jello sits and WAH BAM!

Yummy strawberry dessert!

ENjoy!

Answer 11

I don't have a cake recipe but I have a to-die-for icing recipe.  

put one pint of heavy cream in bowl and mix for a minute or two then add two tablespoons of sugar.  keep mixing until close to being whipped cream.  Add one box of french vanilla pudding mix to it and beat some more.  It will get thick fast now and is ready.  Just add some more cream or even a little milk to make it spreadable.  YOU WILL LOVE THIS!  I have to stop myself from eating it with a spoon-forget the cake!!!
