Apple Lattice Pie

Serves: 8
Preparation time: 25 minutes plus 30 minutes chilling time (pastry)
Cooking time: 1 hour
Ingredients:
For the pastry:
250g plain flour
125g polyunsaturated margarine
2 tbsp SPLENDA® Granulated

For the filling:
6 medium apples
½ tsp grated lemon rind
1 tbsp lemon juice
20g SPLENDA® Granulated
2 tbsp plain flour
2 tsp cinnamon
10g low fat margarine
Serving Suggestion:
Serve with a small scoop of low fat ice-cream. (Not included in Nutrition Information.) 
Method:
Pastry:
1 Sift the flour into a bowl and stir in SPLENDA® Granulated. Rub in the margarine until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs.
2 Add enough cold water to form the mixture into a dough. Wrap in cling film and chill for 30 minutes
3 Remove from the fridge and on a lightly floured surface roll the pastry out thinly using a rolling pin. Line a 9” shallow, loose-bottomed flan tin with the pastry, reserving the trimmings for the lattice. Chill until ready to use.

Filling:
1 Preheat oven to 230ºC/220ºC Fan/Gas Mark 7.
2 Peel, core and cut apples into ½ inch (1 cm) thick slices. Toss with the lemon rind and juice. Combine SPLENDA® Granulated, flour and cinnamon. Stir into the apples.
3 Spoon into the chilled pie crust. Dot with margarine.
4 Cut remaining pastry into ¾ inch (2 cm) strips. Weave strips on top of pie in lattice fashion. Where the strips meet the edge of the pie, seal by brushing with water and pinching together, trimming any excess with a sharp knife.
5 Bake at 230ºC/220ºC Fan/Gas Mark 7 for 10 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 180ºC/170ºC Fan/Gas Mark 4 and bake 35 to 40 minutes longer or until apples are tender.
