McDonalds Apple Pies, Kmart Sausage Roll Maker Cheekyricho Cooking Youtube Video Recipe ep.1,399 

You are most welcome, glad you enjoyed it. Thank you very much for watching and taking the time to comment. Hope you have a safe, Happy and fabulicious Christmas, surrounded by loved ones, great food and laughter.;-))🎄🎅🏻

Thank you very much Nian, such a quick and easy recipe just using things from the pantry. Thanks for watching and your lovely comment.;-))

In Australia, we don’t have the Lattice topped Hot Apple Pies from McDonalds, they are still in the original shape, which prefer. The filling gets very dry and almost like a plastic skin on it in the lattice holes. There is no way I could make them successfully in the Sausage roll maker. These are just perfect, brimming with delicious apples in a light delicate clear sauce. Thanks for watching and your lovely comment. Hope you have a nice relaxing weekend too Lucy.;-))

Absolutely, so many recipes so little time. I’m right in the middle of catering for a 6 year olds party at the moment, making a Dora the Explorer cake. Once I’m finished with that , I’ll be back with oodles more Sausage Roll maker ideas after this weekend. In the meantime most of my pie maker recipes will also work in the sausage roll maker. Hope that helps and thanks for watching.;-))

I’m sure the grandkids will love them , we’ll have lots more recipes coming, to help you get used to using it and thanks for watching.;-)) and the lovely feedback.;-))

cheekyricho cooking they did love them and so did I , looking forward to more recipes thank you 😆😁

Excellent, there will be no stopping me now lol. Thanks for the awesome feedback.;-)) enjoy your weekend!

Thank you Julie, delighted you enjoyed it and your fun comment. Thanks for watching.;-))

Fabulous feedback Barbara, delighted you managed to get both the book and the pie maker. I know you are going to have lots of fun with it. I really appreciate you taking the time to comment and thanks so much for watching.;-))

Thank you very much for the great feedback. I regularly make these as a volunteer for fellow flood victims and it’s always a huge hit. As a matter of fact I never eaten or seen one get cold yet, I think that says something for the popularity of the recipe. I must have omitted to state the pastry was a frozen gluten free variety. My mistake, thank you very much for clarifying it for my audience. I guess I was a bit eager to share it. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment.;-))

@@CheekysKitchen Well, before your video, I didn't know I could actually get delicious gluten free puff pastry, (one of my kids has severe gluten intolerance) and here's a great recipe. Again, thank you for your method and taking the time to share. I'm definitely going to make this 🙂

Thanks Jeff , now I can enjoy a gorgeous crispy apple pie anytime I want and they are a perfect size for after school snacks or lunch boxes. Glad you enjoyed it too. Thanks for watching.;-))

Thank you very much, Mistral and Aldi have one too they are called a pastry maker hope that helps, you are going to see a lot more of these little guys. Thanks for watching.;-))

Buckle up Buttercup, we’ve got lots more Sausage Toll maker ideas coming your way. Hope you enjoy them as much. Thanks for watching and the lovely comment.;-))

Thank you Carol, glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching.;-))

Thank you very much, glad you like it. Thanks for watching.;-))

Thank you Lost In Oz, nice with icecream and caramel drizzle too. Thanks for watching.;-))

Ahh you don’t think you need one, you will be surprised at how good they are. This week I will be uploading today’s lunch, these awesome lamb Koftas, yep you guessed another Sausage Roll Maker Marvel, I have invented, so yummy and easy. They were unavailable during lockdown and one sold for $371 on eBay, mine cost $29 but it’s already had lots of use, corn dogs, fruit mince match sticks (plum pudding pies) Chiko rolls, to name a few, I’m on a Sausage roll with this one, great snack size for kids too. Stop listening to that voice, it’s a party pie pooper. ;-))

@@CheekysKitchen you are.a terrible influence 😂

I know , good ideas are like good food and a smile, meant to be shared.🤗🙄

Thank you very much Julie, some apples are more juicy than others and may need a little more thickening. If they were to get cold you will find the sauce will thicken on standing. I like the texture and clear sauce the potato starch imparts. I use it in all my Asian meals which require the sauce to be thickened, in Asian style batters, in baking and both sweet or savoury dishes. It’s also gluten free so it’s good in custards and sweets. Hope that helps and thank you for your great feedback and for watching.;-))

Told you they were good, don’t forget you can always pop them back into the SRM to reheat them for a lovely hot dessert. Thanks for watching.;-))

Thank you Catherine, glad you like them. I’ve been told they are the best apple pies a certain someone has ever eaten. I’ll take that. Thanks for watching hope you are all staying safe and warm this weekend. ;-))

Haha you are very welcome. Thanks for the feedback and for watching.;-))

Thank you very much Outrageous Flavour, I’m excited for how many recipes you are going to make in your new SRM. The sky’s the limit, pretty soon , you will wonder how you got by without it. Thanks for the great feedback and for watching.;-))

Do the apples become tender

Yes they certainly do. Pink Lady apples keep their shape better and stay a little firm, that’s why I like to use a mixture of Granny Smiths, for tartness and a pink ladies for texture, you could of course use any apples available but I think this mixture of varieties produces the best result. Hope that helps and thanks for watching.;-))

@@CheekysKitchen Thank you for the recipe. I made them last night and they came out good nice and tasty.

Thank you very much con c, glad you are enjoying our recipe , thanks for the great feedback and for watching.;-))

Thank you Apple Berries, glad you like it. I use this apple corer for potato wedges, onion wedges, pineapple chunks without the core, and boiled egg wedges, I had a egg wedger but it’s wired got crossed lol. . They are great for apples, pears and small quinces too. Thanks for watching.;-))

Wow! Happy Birthday Everyone hope you’re able to celebrate it together either now or when all the (Covid ) dust settles. These Apple Pies are perfect food to grab and go. I like smooshing ice cream up to make it like soft serve, a bit of salted caramel sauce or chocky fudge! Yes Please! Thanks for watching.:-))

Thanks Dave, I havent forgotten your berries and custard, I had this one ready to go though. Hope you’re having a fab weekend and thanks for the lovely feedback. Roast Chicken Noice!

@@CheekysKitchen Get rid of Paul Parker Comment

Done ! Thank you, reported the spam. Sorry about that, so much for RU-vid policing offensive content. I’ve been reporting 1/2 dozen of these everyday. I’ve been editing another video and didn’t see it come up. Thanks for letting me know. This is a family friendly channel, I won’t be associated with any offensive material, ever.

@@CheekysKitchen Those Apple Pies smashed the Berry Rolls which were really yummy!!! WOW Thanks.. DUD

Wonderful Dave, I’m these are a great way to get the kids to eat their dinner. They terrific cooking aroma is a perfect incentive, works for me anyway lol. Thanks for the awesome feedback. These are always going to be popular. McDonalds have kept them on their menus for 60 years, she’s an oldie but a goodie.;-))

Thank you Michelle, they are starting to come back in stock but they are getting snapped up as soon as they land on the shelves. If your son enjoys cooking, he will find this very easy to use and can be used for many more things than sausage rolls too. Thanks for watching and good luck with getting one.;-))

@@CheekysKitchen he makes spinach and feta roll.

Now that would be delicious too I happen to have some home grown spinach and some feta. I’d love to make them for your son, if you think he’d like that. It’s his birthday this month isn’t it?

cheekyricho cooking yes he’s 28 on the 26th August

Are you still able to get to the zoo? Queensland seems to be the safest state in Australia at the moment. I checked out how far it is to Miles, when this thing settles down we are going to make a trip out west. We like fishing the inland dams.;-))

That’s delightful feedback Stephen, so happy you found us. We try to always Include something for everyone . In the beginning of the Covid-19 situation , so many people had to learn to cook for themselves and quickly, produce was in short supply or unavailable. Lots of restaurants and hospitality venues were closed or severely limited. I’d like to think our channel helped people gain confidence, inspiration in their own kitchen and managed to eat well, with what was available, with less waste. The feedback I have received from my viewers has been very supportive and positive. I thank you for watching, taking the time to comment and hope you are keeping safe and well.;-))

Wow, that’s very interesting to know, I had no idea. I use it for so many things, I like the way the sauce is glossy and clear it’s flavourless, thickens very easily and reheats well. Cornstarch will usually go runny when reheated. Sometimes after I squeeze the juice out of grated potato Latkes or hash browns I keep the potato water, let it settle and then pour off the clear water, the sludge left in the bottom makes a good thickener, I assumed that’s how they made potato flour. Potato starch is more expensive, less easily obtained and impossible to buy during lock down. I even have sweet potato flour here but I haven’t used it yet. I have a tendency to buy things in Asian grocery stores and then try and find a way to use it. I’ve stumbled onto some amazing ingredients that way but I’ve also bought some shockers too. 🤗🙄

What delightful and polite feedback Roisin, you have really made my day. Thank you so much. I have a 30 plus year old Sunbeam Pie Magic 4, still working fine but the coating has started to fail. Still works but sticks in places. I have actually used it to death, treated it well but the coating obviously has a use by date of around 3 decades. I found the same thing happened to my first sunbeam waffle maker. It had much less use and the non stick coating failed miserably around the same age. The appliance was still working but getting a stuck waffle out of a hot waffle maker took more patience than I had to spare.😡 The sunbeam cost almost $100 at the time which was a great deal Of money, 30 years ago. The base of the pies are smaller in diameter and possibly a little deeper because the lid is domed but I don’t think the capacity is similar. It is too soon to tell how long the Kmart piemaker will last as it’s unlikely I will live another 30 years to compare. I do love the sausage roll maker. No need to cut lids and bases, you can actually fold pastry without cutting. Quicker to load, no rerolling, no waste. Makes great twinky style cakes, choc eclairs, apple pies that are easier to eat, sausage rolls, Spring Rolls or even Chiko Rolls. If you have room to store both appliances and can afford to buy both you can find use for both. You can use either to use up leftovers, saving waste, filling lunch boxes. The pie maker has a flat bottom in the base which lends itself to layered foods like frittata, lasagnas, cheesecakes and vege stacks. You can also use patty papers in them. The sausage roll maker has a round bottom which is perfect for ‘rolled’ foods, spring rolls, wraps, omelettes are a perfect shape to fill a hot dog shaped roll or filling wraps with salad or relish. The greatest compliment you can pay any creator is to say their content has inspired you to use their ideas and you are encouraged to implement the information shared in your own kitchen and for that I am truly grateful. I hope this has answered your questions and don’t forget we are always here to help you on your own food journey. We do the experimenting so you don’t have to. I hope you and the the people you care for are staying safe and well and coping in this current difficult health situation. We hope to bring you lots more interesting recipes, hacks, money saving tips and product reviews in the future. If wasn’t for our kind, sharing, supportive and friendly band of followers who have actually become my friends and part of the Cheekyricho Cooking Family, this channel would be not as much fun for me, as I thoroughly enjoy producing it and interacting with my audience. Thanks for watching and taking the time to leave your generous and sweet comment.;-))

Thank you so much for your thorough response and more ideas on how to use the appliances Mrs CheekyRicho (I still haven’t managed to find out your name but I love watching your videos and I’m doing so whenever I find a spare moment in RU-vid, so maybe in one of those your name will be revealed 😉). Wow, 30 years, it has had a good innings, so it’s probably deserving of a good retiring or maybe, occasional use, it’s served you well. I think it's true when people say things don’t get made as they used to, but back then appliances were that more expensive because more solid/better quality materials were used so that was in a way, justified. Maybe the coating in the waffle maker degraded, as it didn’t have that much use. Something similar happened to me with a sandwich maker, no fun to remove stuck on food from hot plates! I read somewhere that you should put a thin coat of oil on the non stick coating of the appliances that have seldom use, not sure how effective but I don’t think it could hurt. I haven’t a waffle maker although it does wink at me every now and then when I look at other appliances online. Well, I think I ’have’ to treat myself to both appliances then, I’ll make some room for them in the kitchen cupboard. No, THANK YOU for all the ideas and the easy-going but detailed manner you have to explain and show the recipes, everything seems so simple 😁 You can be assured that I always appreciate all the effort you put in in making the videos, and I look forward to continue going through your library of delicious recipes. Look after yourself and your nearest and dearest, thank you again ⭐️🌈🍀🌼😇😘 N.B. I wrote this message two weeks ago but had some techy troubles so could not post it. I have started a new message, sorry but it seems it is the only way it will let me reply to you. Here is my answer and thank you again, I nearly always think of your phrase when thinking what to cook: "We cook for taste, not for profit". It is so true, life is short, we have to try and make the best of every moment, every day.

Isn’t technology so frustrating sometimes? We didn’t even use calculators when I went to school and certainly no computers. I have always had a great love of cooking and deep respect for food, it’s origin, preparation, preservation and cultural significance. I am just sharing recipes that give me comfort and joy. No secrets here, recipes shared with me WILL be shared, can’t help myself really. No one goes hungry here and all visitors get a take home goodie bag, of my latest video creation or request. You can’t expect to see some more waffle videos, using my new appliance, it’s just so easy to make tasty snacks, quickly economically and easily. You’ve got to love that combination. Hope your techy troubles are sorted and you can keep enjoying your trips into youtube for all things interesting, delicious and entertaining. Your lovely reply is very much appreciated and our gorgeous audience is what keeps us motivated and inspired. Hope you are having a Fabulicious week and are keeping safe and well.;-))

Hey there Kiwi Diana, I used regular store bought frozen sheets of puff pastry. It works a great, looks the same and the pastry is not as thick, it also stays puffed snd pillowy not sad and flat. The filling tastes as close to the real deal as I can make it except of course there is a lot more fruit that sauce filler (we cook for taste, not for profit) I’m sure if you give it a try you will be equally impressed. Your could use shortcrust pastry and it will work but it is more fiddly to work with and doesn’t seem to stay as crisp, which is my preference, even cold these tend to retain the crisp out shell, although that doesn’t happen often, a cold pie pfftt! Lol Thanks for the great feedback snd for watching. Cheers from across the ditch. 🇳🇿 🇦🇺

Thank you for your feedback, we are big cinnamon fans and this seems to be pretty close to the cinnamon taste in the Maccas Apple Pie. You could try shortcrust but it is not as robust as puff, meaning it will not hold together as well, be more flaky or ‘short’ (hence the name ) it crumble more easily and be harder to remove from the sausage roll maker without breaking. Different brands of Puff pastry perform differently from each other. I personally don’t like the Aldi brand, it has a different taste and doesn’t behave as well as Pampas, Borgs or even Woolworths Home Brand, can’t compare it to Coles Home brand as I haven’t been able to buy it there, all year. This is just my personal preference, you may have better or different results to me. I hope that helps and thank you for your feedback and for watching.;-))

I use shortcrust on bottom and puff on the top

Thank you for your lovely feedback Bev, I understand the problem, I had to source some from an Asian Specialty store in Southport Qld. You can use cornflour or cornstarch or arrowroot. Substitute equal for equal quantities. The reason I like potato starch is because it makes a nice clear glossy sauce, it’s tasteless, gluten free (not important in this recipe unless you use gluten free pastry). Arrowroot can get a bit ‘gloopy’, think wallpaper paste lol. Cornflour is an adequate substitute but if you reheat it, there is a possibility the sauce will return to a more liquid state. My personal opinion is potato starch is an ideal thickening medium for everything from Asian sauces to desserts. The alternatives I have suggested will work. If and when potato flour is available again, you might find it a really worthwhile product to have on hand. I really appreciate your comments, thank you very much for watching. I hope that information helps.;-))

@@CheekysKitchen, thankyou so much, looking forward to more unreal recipes from you

Thank you Philip, I had a bit of trouble buying it recently too, I thought it might have something to do with supply shortages due to COVID, I hope not I use it for so many things. Ground rice or rice flour is wonderful for making things like Mochi or shortbread. It’s a bit gritty. Arrowroot is readily available, makes a clear sauce but can be a bit gloopy. Cornflour will work but it will make the sauce a bit cloudy, still gluten free, tastes the same, just not quite as clear and glossy. Thanks for watching and your lovely feedback, I hope to bring you lots more interesting recipes.;-))

@@CheekysKitchen hi thanks for your reply looks like cornflour it is! thanks again

You’re welcome Philip, cornflour is your best bet as the consistency is better than arrowroot, if you don’t mind the sauce being a bit cloudy, then you will still enjoy this recipe because it really is very tasty.;-))

Just use cornflour. I did and the taste and consistency is perfect.

That’s great, glad the cornflour substitute worked well for you. Thanks for watching.;-)) 🎄🎅🏻💐

Thanks for your question, no you can use cornflour or arrowroot to thicken your filling. The reason I use potato flour is it is clear when thickened, is Gluten free, reheats beautifully without going runny, does not have any taste, mixes in readily and never clumps. When using cornflour, often when reheating it returns to a more liquid state and is less stable. Hope that helps and thanks for watching.;-))

The international or gluten free aisle of many supermarkets, Asian specialty supermarkets and health food shops generally stock it. You can substitute cornflour if you get stuck but the sauce will be cloudy and not clear. Hope that helps and thanks for watching.;-))

use corn starch or cornflour in Australia

I used to get it from Coles, woollies or Asian supermarkets. There has been a lack of supply since COVID and I’m having trouble finding it now. Hope it’s back on the shelves soon, my cupboard stock is running low.

Thank you very much for your very helpful feedback. I’m sorry your viewing experience was marred by the exhibition of ads at such a crucial point. I do hope you get the chance to make this recipe, it is excellent, easy and probably one of the best recipes to highlight the versatility of this humble little budget friendly appliance. You can expect to see a lot more interesting recipe ideas, from us using it to inspire you to make some crazy fun feeds, in the Sausage Roll Maker, Family Pie Maker, individual pie maker and the latest addition to our arsenal, the churro maker. I know , how many recipes can I invent for that one? I may even make Churros lol. Thanks for watching.;-))

Thank you for your question michpet72, to be honest Ive never eaten them cold, they normally don't last that long here, we enjoy them with custard, cream or ice cream. You could crisp up the pastry by popping them back into the sausage roll maker for a couple of minutes to reheat them, this will evaporate the moisture that may have accumulated during storage. Maybe storing them on a wire rack to completely cool and not placing warm pastries in an airtight container will prolong the crispness you enjoy when they a freshly made. Hope that helps, thanks for watching and your very interesting question.;-))

Haha 20 cups lol. Thanks for the fun comment and for watching.;-))

@@CheekysKitchen ah, you finally noticed it. 🤪

Yes sorry about the late reply, somehow my notifications have been disabled and with almost 2,000 videos uploaded on both my channels some comments slip through unnoticed. Apart from that we almost lost our house in the floods last year do the priority has been making it safe and liveable again, I lost so much kitchen, lighting and camera equipment it’s been a bit of a juggle just getting things back to a bit more normal. I miss my uploads, I am still cooking though, I cook regular meals for the other flood victims who lost even more than me. Some are still Living in tents and caravans in the yards of their gutted homes. Your fun comment was a bright spot in a very dismal patch we are all enduring at present. As they say what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger, I have some stern words for the author that that proverb lol. Thanks for watching.;-))
