Apple pie
Description
The pastry is simple and quick to prepare. To make an apple pie, use ready-made puff pastry. It's better to use non-yeast pastry, but yeast pastry will work as well. I recommend using sweet-tart apples. By sautéing them in sugar with cinnamon, you'll remove excess acidity, yet the taste won't be overly sweet. You can skip brushing with apricot jam, but it adds shine and extra sweetness to the pie. The pastry is ready. Serve at the table.

Step 3
Cut the apples into pieces, it's better to peel them. Simmer the apples with sugar and cinnamon, adding a little water. Then place the apples on top of the cookies. The cookies will absorb the apple juice during baking and prevent the dough from becoming soggy.
