Stepping into December, the Christmas atmosphere here begins to grow stronger.

Although Christmas is a holiday from abroad, it is indeed a holiday loved by everyone. I also like it very much. It has nothing to do with beliefs. It simply likes the joy of jingle bells and the joyous festivals.

I like craftsmanship. I used to make small gifts like cards for Christmas before. Let’s join in the fun this year and make some Christmas-style baking.

Speaking of Christmas, the first thing in my mind except for the Christmas tree, snowflakes, snowman, and Santa Claus, the first thing I think of when it comes to eating is an apple.

How did the relationship between Christmas and Apple spread? Which legend is authentic is not known, but the sound of "ping" and "ping" in Chinese characters are the same. I guess it is the meaning of "peace". .

This is the second Christmas style apple-related pie. The pie crust is colored with matcha, just like the color of a Christmas tree. The pie filling is Kasta with a little matcha, it tastes a bit bitter like matcha, my family can accept it, if you don't like it, you can reduce the use of matcha.

Christmas Style Matcha Coconut Apple Pie

1. Weigh and prepare the ingredients, take out the egg yolk, cut the unsalted butter into small pieces, mix the cake flour and matcha powder through a sieve.

2. To make homemade shortbread dough pie crust, first beat the egg yolks.

3. Mix the cake flour and the butter cubes, rub the clothes and rub the butter and cake flour into coarse particles.

4. Add egg yolk liquid.

5. Use a silicone spatula to cut and mix the cake flour and egg yolk until there is no dry powder.

6. Simply knead it with your hands, put it in a fresh-keeping bag, press it slightly, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

7. To make custard pie filling, mix the egg, egg yolk, sugar, and pure milk evenly, then add 2 grams of matcha powder.

8. Under simple stirring, filter 2 times.

9. The matcha particles that cannot be filtered are filtered by pressing with a silicone spatula.

10. Stir from time to time until the matcha is fully incorporated into the custard.

11. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees, and fire up and down; take out the refrigerated sweet and shortbread dough, leave it at room temperature for about 10 minutes, press it with your hands, wrap it in plastic wrap, and roll it out with a rolling pin.

12. Fill in the mold, press and fit the mold with the belly of your finger, and pierce some small holes at the bottom with a fork.

13. Cut the lemon in half to squeeze out the lemon juice, peel the apple and remove the core, cut in half, and cut into thin slices. Each slice is evenly covered with lemon juice to reduce oxidation and discoloration.

14. Put the pie pan in the baking pan, put the apple slices in the pie, pour the custard water.

15. Put it into the preheated oven, 180 degrees, upper and lower fire, the third layer, bake for 45-50 minutes, after baking, put it on the cooling rack to cool, decorate the coconut, colored sugar, and chocolate sauce as you like.

Tips:
1. The sweet crispy dough can be refrigerated by simply kneading it into a dough. If it is kneaded too much, the dough will be hard and the taste is not good.

2. Unsalted butter does not need to be softened, just take it out of the refrigerator and cut into small pieces.

3. Filter the custard water so that the matcha powder has no large particles and has a better taste. Stir it evenly before pouring it into the mold to avoid sinking.

4. Wrap the dough with plastic wrap and roll it out to a circle that is a little larger than the top mouth of the mold with the largest diameter.

5. The oven has a capacity of 32 liters, and the grill is set on 4 levels. Please adjust the baking time and temperature appropriately according to the actual situation.

6. The amount of sugar is not too much and it will not be very sweet. You can increase or decrease the amount of sugar and reduce the amount of matcha.

7. Choose apples that are not particularly watery and crisp, and the weight of the apple is the weight before processing.

8. The pie crust will be thinner, please handle it carefully. It is better to wrap it with plastic wrap and roll it out. It is recommended to use a live-bottom pie plate.
