Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F). Peel the apples and core them, keeping them whole.
2. Fill the hole with the sugar and a clove.
3. For the shortcrust pastry, rub the vegan butter into the flour with your fingertips until it looks like breadcrumbs. Add the cold water little by little until you have a fairly firm dough, and roll it out about 5 mm thick. This is the shortcrust pastry.
4. Cut it into 4 squares and wrap each apple in one, sealing it at the top.
5. Bake for 30 to 45 minutes, until the pastry is golden.
