Here's a new touch for an old favourite...the sharp taste of green apples contrasts with the sweetness of the cheese mixture. How many does it serve? Depends on how a big slice everyone wants!

METHOD
1. Sift the flour, baking powder and salt into a large bowl, stir in the sugar. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles crumbs, make a well in the centre and pour in the milk, mix quickly with a knife to make a soft dough.
2. Knead the dough lightly on a floured board, then roll out large enough to line the base and sides of a 23cm loose bottom flan tin. Cover the base with apple slices.
3. In a food processor combine the cream cheese, sugar, lemon juice and eggs until the mixture becomes smooth, pulse in the lemon rind and mixed peel. Alternatively, beat together in a bowl. Pour over apples. Cook at 180degC for 40-45 minutes or until firm and just golden. Cook and serve with extra cream.
