Festive apple pies

1 Place the flour, icing sugar, spice and Stork in a food processor and whizz until it resembles fine breadcrumbs.  Add the egg and 2 tbsp milk and whizz again until the mixture comes together. Bring together to make a ball then wrap in cling film and chill for at least 30 minutes.

2 Preheat the oven to 200°C, gas mark 6. Stir together the apples, cranberries, sugar, orange zest and Pimms.

3 Roll out the pastry on a floured surface to 3mm thick. Using a 10cm fluted round cutter, stamp out 12 rounds then re-roll the trimmings and stamp out 12 x 5cm rounds to make the pie lids.

4 Use the large discs to line a 12-hole muffin tin. Spoon in the filling then place the lids on top (there should be a little gap around the edge).  Brush with milk and bake for 20 – 25 minutes until golden brown and cooked all the way through.  Dust lightly with icing sugar before serving.
