Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons reduced-fat spread
  • 6 large granny smith apples, peeled, cored and sliced
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • ⅓ cup orange juice
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla essence
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 4 sheets filo pastry
  • cooking oil spray
  • 2 teaspoons castor sugar
  • 1 tablespoon flaked almonds
  • low-fat vanilla custard to serve

  • Instructions

    1   Preheat oven to 180°C. Melt spread in a large non-stick pan over low heat. Add the apples, sugar, juice, vanilla and cinnamon. Cook, stirring, for 5 minutes, or until apples soften slightly. Spoon mixture into a 6-cup capacity pie dish and set aside to cool slightly.

    2   Stack pastry sheets, spraying lightly between each with cooking oil. Put the pastry on top of the apples to cover, and fold over edges.

    3   Brush with a little water and sprinkle with castor sugar and almonds. Bake for 30 minutes, until the pastry is golden. Serve warm with low-fat custard if desired.
