1 tsp vanilla extract

400g can apple pie filling

2 Tbsp caster sugar

Finely grated zest of 1 lemon

Preheat oven to 160°C fan-forced (180°C conventional). Lightly grease and line a deep 20 x 30cm lamington pan with baking paper.

In a food processor, combine flour, sugar, butter and baking powder. Process until mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Add egg and vanilla. Pulse until a crumbly dough forms.

Press half of the dough evenly over base of pan. Bake for 10 minutes. Cool slightly.

Meanwhile, to make the Filling, in a large bowl, combine all ingredients. Mix well. Spread evenly over cooled base.

Crumble remaining dough evenly over filling. Sprinkle with cinnamon. Bake for 35-40 minutes, until golden brown. Cool completely in pan. Cut into rectangles. Serve dusted with icing sugar.
