Apple, plum and cinnamon skillet pie

Serves: 8

Delicious, warming and simple to make - it's also great to prepare in advance for a dinner party.

1 tbsp of unsalted butter

5 large cooking apples, cored and cut into slices

5 plums, stoned and cut into slices

200g of honey

300ml of water

1 tsp of cinnamon powder

1 vanilla pod, split in half

1 sheet of ready rolled shortcrust pastry

1 egg yolk

Preheat the oven to 180C/350F/Gas 4.
In an ovenproof frying pan, fry the apples and plums in the butter over a medium heat. Add in the honey, water, cinnamon and vanilla and turn down to a simmer. Cook for 7-10 minutes or until thick and sticky. Allow to cool fully.
Cut strips of pastry and arrange over the pan in a lattice style, alternating under and over to create a woven effect. Decorate with leaf shaped pastry around the edge.
Brush with egg yolk and bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Allow to sit for a few minutes before serving.
