- You start to grind the above mixture, while you grind, add vinegar and cold water to blend together. Note that you put water in slowly so as not to be splashed out.
- When you see the mixture of flour and butter evenly blended, pour the dough into the bowl or on the table. You start to knead the dough to make it very smooth and smooth.
- Next, you divide the dough into two equal parts, wrap the two parts with plastic wrap.
- You put the dough in the refrigerator cooler for about 1 hour before we make the cake.
- In the next part we are going to make a cake.
- You put butter in a pan to melt, add white sugar, brown sugar and a teaspoon of water to boil. Remember to stir the mixture continuously to prevent it from burning.
- When the sugar is all melted, put the apple in the island together, you just stir the apple for 2-3 minutes, then take the apple out so that the apple does not break.
- With the same pan, the rest is the butter and sugar mixture, you turn on the heat and continue to cook.
- When you see the sugar butter mixture evaporating, leaving only the thick soup, you pour it back into the apple bowl and mix well.
- The next step, you take out a portion of the powder from the refrigerator, peel off the plastic and put the dough on the table
- You put a piece of baking paper on the table and then put the dough on top, you use a stick to roll the dough into a circle with the same diameter as a cake mold.

- The last step, you put the rest of the dough in the mold, place the dough over the apple, also use a knife to cut off the excess dough.
- At this point there will be a gap between the two dough layers, so use eggs or a little butter to attach them.

Note when making tapioca apple pie
- With apple filling, you should use a variety of apples such as green apples, red apples so the flavor of the cake is also more unique and attractive. But you must use iced apples, not using apple powder like that will not be delicious.
- To keep apples from browning, after slicing apples, soak them in dilute salt water for a few seconds and then take them out to drain.
- Since we use cold butter in the crust, cutting butter will be a bit difficult. So for a softer cut, warm up the knife before cutting the butter.
- When baking, you need to pay attention to regular monitoring to not make the cake burn.
- To cut delicious and beautiful cake, you need to let it cool completely. So the crust will be crunchy, chewy, and delicious. If you cut the cake while it is hot, the cake is still very soft, not solid. When you cut the cake, the filling will be disjointed and the crust does not match. For the cake to cool completely, it takes about 2-3 hours, so be patient.
- Another note is that the dough when baking is always chilled so the cake is crispy so you should pay attention to follow the correct process.
- If you like, you can sprinkle a little more powdered sugar on the cake so it is also delicious.
- Apple cake has a buttery-scented brown gold in addition, when eaten, it is a bit crunchy. The filling of the cake and apple is soft without crumbling. It is strongly absorbed with butter, sweetness of sugar and aroma of cinnamon powder. You can eat it with fresh milk, a cup of tea or a cup of coffee.
