Meantime------------------------

• Put the sliced apples into a wide bottomed pot with the lemon juice and honey. Turn onto a medium heat and stir well. When it starts to simmer stir regularly till the apples are just cooked through. If the mixture becomes dry and starts to stick before they are cooked add 2 tablespoons water extra. The apples still have a nice texture and are JUST cooked.
• Pour into a ceramic dish or pie dish.

You can make the recipe till this point and leave for a day till you want to bake. * The apples may discolour a bit.

• Lift the big biscuit off the tray still on the paper and turn onto the top of the baking dish containing the apples tucking it in all around the sides.
• Bake for 30 minutes or till golden. Dust with icing sugar and toasted coconut and serve warm with ice cream or cream.
