Apple Pie Recipe

• 5 bramley apples, cut into sugar-cube sized pieces
• 2 teaspoons of freshly ground cinnamon sticks
• 3 tablespoons of caster sugar
• squeeze of lemon juice

I used some off-the-shelf shortcrust pastry and rolled it out into a bottom-up cake tin, and brushed milk and sprinkled sugar over the top before sticking in a medium oven until it looked wicked.

Look how taken with the pie Suki was:

Can naughty cats eat pie?

Meet Suki (all black) and Layla (the other one):

We got them a few weeks ago, but have been too absorbed playing "Escape from the garden", "Ruin the furniture" and "Do wee-ing in secret places".

They are awesome.
