Ingredients for Apple Raspberry Lattice Cake
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
- Almond Extract
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Raspberry Jam
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 4 large apples (such as Honeycrisp or Gala), peeled, cored, and sliced
How to Make Apple Raspberry Lattice Cake
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Prepare the pastry: In a large bowl, combine flour, salt, and sugar. Cut in butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough just comes together. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill for at least 30 minutes.
- Prepare the filling: Peel, core, and slice 4 large apples. In a bowl, toss the apples with 1/4 cup sugar, 1 tablespoon flour, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg.
- In a separate bowl, gently mix 1 cup raspberries with 2 tablespoons sugar.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out half of the pastry dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer to a 9-inch pie plate.
- Spread the apple filling evenly over the pastry crust.
- Top with the raspberries.
- Roll out the remaining pastry dough and cut into 1-inch strips.
- Create a lattice top by weaving the pastry strips over and under each other across the filling.
- Trim and crimp the edges of the pastry.
- Brush the top with 1 egg beaten with 1 tablespoon of water.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
- Let cool completely before serving.
