I would love to add a photo but can't work out how to resize it!

Tips/Hints:
Normally to stew fruit I would cook for 25 minutes, but as this gets baked also, 20 minutes is plenty.

My father requested apple pie with sultanas for Father's Day, so I tried this recipe. I made a few changes when I made this in my ThermoChef. I made the pastry first and halved the sugar as I don't normally add sugar to my pastry for apple pie. I creamed the butter and sugar in speed 5 for 30 sec and then added the egg and dropped the speed to speed4 for 10 seconds. I added the flours and only mixed on speed 5 for 10 seconds and then switched to the knead function for 20 seconds.
I used 75g of brown sugar to stew the apples, and then added 100g of sultanas and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon after the first 15 minutes. I was a little concerned as there was a lot of liquid in the apples and I thought that I should have stewed them without the additional water. However, I made the pastry and stewed the apples a day before assembling the pie, and overnight in the fridge, the apples seemed to re absorb the liquid and the final pie was a success.
I served the pie with homemade vanilla icecream and cream, and everyone enjoyed it- especially dad who was able to take the one and only last slice home for tea.

Here is a picture of the cooked apples and pastry:
