Milanese pie with apples and onions is a refined representative of Italian cuisine, combining the tenderness of apples and the rich aroma of caramelized onions. This pie has roots in the northern regions of Italy, where the harmony of simple yet expressive flavors is traditionally valued. Sweet apples paired with savory onions create an extraordinarily soft and deep flavor profile, complemented by creamy Gouda cheese. The crispy puff pastry serves as the perfect base for this filling, revealing its richness with every bite. The pie is great for a warm family dinner or a festive feast. It can be served as a standalone dish or alongside a fresh green salad with a light citrus dressing. Enjoy your meal!
