Orange-Zest Apple Raisin Shortbread Pie

Try a pie made from aromatic shortcrust pastry with apple filling! The dough for such a closed pie has a delicate orange note due to the orange zest included in its composition. The filling can be made differently. This can be any fruit and (or) dried fruit, cottage cheese with vanilla or jam. Everything is at your discretion. Shortbread pie with a delicious crispy crust will be a wonderful addition to your tea party!
