1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) Gas Mk 6.
2. Rub 3 oz (75 g) of the butter into the flour with the 2 tsp of sugar and mix to a dough with a little cold water.

4. Peel and core the apples, cut into slices and place a layer in the base of the dish.
5. Sprinkle with the remaining sugar and then place another layer of apples on top.
6. Roll out the pastry on a lightly floured board to about 1/8 inch (35 mm) thick and place on top of the apples, pushing the pastry neatly round the edges and allowing the excess pastry to fall back inside.
