Apple pie
Description
The recipe is quite easy to execute. I just want to add that the size of my pan is 25 × 30 cm. For a large family, use double the amount of ingredients and accordingly a pan twice as large. This wonderful apple and custard pie goes perfectly with tea, coffee, or milk. Serve it cooled or slightly warm.
