Step by Step guide

Step 1

Roll out the dough into 2 round crusts, place them in tart pans without edges, and refrigerate for a while.

Step 2

Peel and cut the apples into small cubes. Place a third of the apples in a food processor and chop. Transfer the chopped apples to a large pot. Repeat the same with the remaining apples in 2 batches. Then place all the dried fruits in the food processor and chop as well, transferring them to the apples. Add sugar, reserving 1 tablespoon, rum, brandy, cornstarch, butter, zests, spices, and salt. Mix well and heat over medium heat for 10-12 minutes until the mixture thickens. Remove from heat, transfer to a bowl, and cool for 1 hour.

Step 3

Preheat the oven to 374°F. Transfer 1 sheet of dough into a round tart pan with edges, slightly smaller than the crust, and fill it with the cooled filling. Cut the second sheet of dough into strips and arrange them in a lattice pattern on top of the filling. Seal the ends of the strips with the bottom crust.

Step 4

Whip the cream with the remaining sugar and brush the mixture over the pie.

Step 5

Bake the pie for 15 minutes, then reduce the temperature to 356°F and bake for another 50-60 minutes until the crust is golden brown. Transfer the pie to a plate and cool.
