'Greg' the Apple Pie

This is a SERIOUS apple pie, suitable for consumption by Henry 8th on a picnic. Made in LARGE individual ramekins.

For two Gregs, use about four medium sized apples. Peel, core and cut up reasonably small, sugar and spice to taste, microwave until they're considerably reduced in size and soft.

Make up some sweetcrust pastry with 150g of flour.

Strain the juices out of the cooked apples and use them to microwave half a handful (or however much you feel like) of mixed fruit in them until plumped up and delicious. Return the mixed fruit with any remaining juice to the apple.

Make up a small 'custard' with one egg, touch of sugar and a splash of milk. Add to the apples, reserving a smidge to glaze the top.

Add half a handful of ground almonds. Combine.

Grease two large individual ramekins and line them with pastry. Fill with the apple mix, lattice the top. Glaze with the reserved egg mix.

Put in a baking tray to catch the drips and bake on 180-200 until golden and bubbling. Take to your picnic spot still in the ramekin to avoid squashing. They should come out nicely, like a pork pie.
