Peel the apples, grate them and squeeze the juice. The sugar is caramelized, the butter is added, then the apples. Leave it for 5-7 minutes, then add the semolina, cinnamon and the ground walnuts.

Divide the dough in half, spread the first sheet on the lightly floured table, roll it on a rolling pin and place it in the slow cooker bowl lined with baking paper. Add all the apple filling and cover with the second sheet.

From the extra dough, lightly break and form balls with which you can decorate the pie edge. Set the pot on high for 2.5 hours and use an absorbent towel.

After baking, grease the pie with honey and sprinkle with coconut flakes.

It can be served plain or with ice cream!
