Thin pastry crust filled with thinly sliced apples. We Finlanders in Northern Minnesota call it Apple Potica. Once you've made it, your family will ask for it again and again. Ingredients:
2 cups flour |
1/2 cup warm water |
4 tablespoons cooking oil |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 beaten egg |
3 lbs apples, thinly sliced |
1/4 cup butter, melted |
3/4 cup sugar |
1 teaspoon cinnamon |
1/2 cup breadcrumbs |
Directions:
1. Mix flour and salt.
2. Combine water, egg and oil.
3. Add flour until dough forms.
4. Knead 10 minutes until satiny.
5. If dough is sticky add more flour.
6. Stretch dough paper thin to about 45x50 inch on floured cloth.
7. Mix apples with leftover ingredients.I use red delicious apples).
8. Spread on pastry.
9. Roll as a jelly roll,tuck ends close.
10. Place on Pam sprayed cookie sheet.
11. Bake 350°F for 1 hour.
12. Note- This isn't as difficult to make as you may think. And once you've made it, becomes easier.
13. Note- I didn't list a prep time ,because if you have a food processor for slicing and a kitchen aid for kneading.You've got it made in no time. But, if you have to slice by hand and knead by hand it will take a while longer - But, well worth the time. Ummm Good - .
