Ingredients

For the pastry crust
150 grams all-purpose flour
25 grams cocoa, unsweetened
4 teaspoons sugar
1 pinch salt
85 grams cold unsalted butter
4 tablespoons ice water
For the filling
2 apples, not too ripe
Juice of half lemon
2-3 tablespoons sugar
0.5 cups mixture of sliced almonds, pine nuts and raisins
Vanilla ice cream to serve (optional)

Directions

1

In a bowl, stir together the flour, cocoa, salt and sugar. Add the butter, cold from the fridge, cut into small pieces. Work quickly to get a sandy mixture, don't worry if you still have some butter lumps. Add a tablespoon of ice water at a time and keep working until you get a smooth and elastic dough. Wrap in plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator to rest for about one hour.
2

Preheat the oven to 200° C.
3

Wash the apples and remove the core. Cut into thin slices, spraying with lemon juice to prevent oxidation.
4

Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out in a uniform and circular shape, about 4 mm thick. Arrange the slices of apple next to each other forming a compact and circular design, leaving about 3 cm from the edge. Sprinkle the nuts and raisins mixture on top. Fold the edges inward, making small folds.
5

Sprinkle the apple filling and dough edge with sugar.
6

Bake in the preheated oven for 35 to 45 minutes, until it's golden and crispy. You can serve it while still warm with a vanilla ice cream scoop on the side (optional).
