Ingredients

Base for Your Lazy Layered Apple Pie

• 170 g flour
• 170 g semolina
• 140 g sugar
• 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 5 medium apples
• 30 g butter

For the Cream Topping

• 150 ml cream

Instructions for Your Easy Layered Apple Pie

1. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, combine the flour, semolina, sugar, and baking powder for your layered semolina pie. Mix these dry ingredients well.

2. Prepare Apples: Grate the fresh apples using a grater. These grated apples will form a delightful layer in your homemade apple pie.

3. Prepare the Baking Dish: Grease your baking dish with butter and sprinkle it generously with flour to create a “French shirt.” This essential step helps your layered apple pie come out of the pan easily.

4. Layer the Pie: Carefully layer the ingredients for your Lazy Layered Pie as shown in the video. Begin with a layer of the dry ingredient mixture, followed by a layer of grated apples, then another layer of dry ingredients, and so on. The top layer of your easy semolina pie should always be the dry ingredient mixture.

5. Prepare the Topping: Heat the butter on the stove until it is completely melted for the rich topping of your layered dessert.

6. Add the Cream & Butter: Poke small holes on the top of the layered apple pie with a stick or skewer. Gently pour the cream and melted butter over the entire top surface.

7. Bake the Layered Apple Pie: Bake your delicious layered pie in the oven at 180°C (350°F) for about 45–55 minutes, or until golden brown.

8. Cool: Remove the baked semolina apple pie from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before serving.

9. Decorate & Enjoy: Decorate your easy Lazy Layered Pie as desired – perhaps with a dusting of powdered sugar or a sprinkle of cinnamon – and enjoy this wonderful homemade apple dessert!
