preparation
step 1
To prepare the filling just mix in a bowl all the ingredients except flour and butter
step 2
Place the bowl covered in the refrigerator for at least 12 hours, then heat the oven to 120 degrees and cook for 3 hours by covering with aluminum paper.
step 3
Mix well and, when it is completely cool, add the brandy (this step is optional). Then place it in jars as if it were jam.
step 4
Pour the flour into a bowl and chop the butter. Start kneading, add little water, if necessary, until you get a soft and compact dough.
step 5
Let it rest in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes closed in the transparent film. (For super quick pies you can buy the one already ready!)
step 6
Stir the dough with the rolling pin and cut out 6 big disks and 6 small ones (I cut stars).
step 7
Pick up a muffin baking tray and place the large disks, the stuffing, and then cover with the small disks. Bake at 180 degrees for about 25 minutes.
step 8
Before serving, sprinkle with icing sugar and cinnamon.
