Gradually pour in ice water, 1/2 tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough comes together.
Wrap the dough in greaseproof paper and place it in the fridge for 30 minutes.
In a saucepan, combine diced apples, spices, sugars, cornflour, and lemon juice. Cook over low to medium heat, stirring constantly, until thickened.

Roll out the dough between two sheets of floured greaseproof paper until it forms a large rectangle.
