Method
Step 1 of 7
Preheat oven to 200°C. Grease a deep, 26cm pie dish and place on a baking tray.
Step 2 of 7
Place flour, sugar and 1/2 tsp salt into a food processor and pulse to combine. Add butter and process until finely chopped. Add egg yolk and, with motor running, add about 1 tbs iced water to just bring the dough together.
Step 3 of 7
Transfer to a lightly floured benchtop and knead gently until smooth. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill for 30 minutes. When ready to use, allow pastry to soften for 10 minutes before rolling.
Step 4 of 7
Roll out 1 quantity of pastry until 4mm thick. Use to line pie dish. Trim excess. Peel, quarter and core apples. Cut each quarter into 4-5 slices. Place in a bowl and sprinkle with lemon juice to prevent browning.
Step 5 of 7
Combine lemon rind, sugar, flour, cinnamon and allspice in a bowl. Toss through apples. Layer apple mixture into pastry case, adding blueberries as you go.
Step 6 of 7
Roll out second quantity of pastry and cut using heart-shaped cutters. Lay pastry hearts over filling to cover, leaving small gaps to allow steam to escape. Brush pie with egg and sprinkle with extra sugar.
Step 7 of 7
Bake for 15 minutes. Reduce oven to 180°C and continue to cook for 1 hour or until juices are bubbling and pie is golden. Serve with cream.
