I have a tonne of homemade jam and I'm always looking for ways to use it!

Since it's Pi day today I thought I'd make a crostata with some crab apple jam :blush: I foraged a lot of crab apples last summer and I still have plenty of jars to use :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: Any jam will work well for crostata, especially strawberry, apricot or berries which are very traditional.

Apple Crostata for Pi Day  :green_apple: -I have a tonne of homemade jam and I'm always looking for ways to use it!

Since it's Pi day toda

2 1/4 cups plain flour

3/4 cup virgin coconut oil

5 tbsp brown sugar

A pinch of salt

Enough ice-cold water to form dough, around 1/2 cup

1 jar of your preferred jam

1 tbsp plant milk

1 tbsp maple syrup

Mix the first four ingredients until the coconut oil is mixed with the flour. Slowly add the water until a non-sticky dough forms. Knead until well combined, cover with cling film and place in the fridge for 30 minutes. Once out of the fridge, knead a few times until it softens a little and then roll out on a floured surface.

Place in your pie tin, fill with the jam and make designs with the leftover dough. Brush with the plant milk-maple mix and bake at 190°C for 30-40 minutes.

Great post, Jo! Looks so delicious. My wife posted a store bought pie on Facebook for Pi Day and one of her friends told her she forgot the e. I guess not everyone is a fan of transcendental numbers :joy:
