1. Crust of War

   • 2 1/2 cups flour from the ground bones of the fallen
   • 1 teaspoon salt from the tears of enemies
   • 1 teaspoon sugar, sweet as the taste of victory
   • 1 cup butter, as cold as the heart of Khorne
   • 4-8 tablespoons ice water, chilled like the winds of the Chaos Wastes

2. Filling of Conquest

   • 6-8 large apples, plucked from the orchards of conquered realms
   • 2/3 cup sugar, as much as the spoils of war
   • 2 tablespoons flour, as binding as the chains of slaves
   • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, fiery as the pits of battle
   • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg, dark as the secrets of Chaos
   • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger, sharp as the blades of Khorne
   • 1 tablespoon lemon juice, sour as the defeat of foes

3. Topping of Triumph

   • 1 egg, beaten as fiercely as Khorne's war drums
   • 1 tablespoon sugar, glistening like the sweat of warriors

Instructions

1. Forge the Pie Crust:

   • In the cauldron of doom, combine bone-flour, salt, and sugar.
   • Mix in the cold, heartless butter until the mixture resembles the coarse ground of a battlefield.
   • Gradually stir in ice water, just enough to bind the souls of the damned.
   • Divide the dough into two, wrap in the skins of foes, and chill in the dark recesses of the Chaos realm.

2. Prepare the Filling:

   • Skin and slice the apples, as one prepares for war.
   • In the trophy bowl, mix apples with the spoils of sugar, flour, fiery cinnamon, dark nutmeg, sharp ginger, and lemon juice, sour as defeat.

3. Assemble the Pie:

   • Preheat your infernal oven to the fires of battle.
   • Unleash the first half of the dough onto a pie plate, as a warlord claims his throne.
   • Pile high the apple filling, like the bodies of vanquished foes.
   • Cover with the second half of the dough, sealing the fate of the captured.
   • Carve the symbols of Khorne into the crust, letting the steam escape like the dying breaths of enemies.
   • Anoint the crust with the beaten egg and sprinkle with sugar, like the glory of victory.

4. The Final Conquest:

   • Bake in the fiery depths for 50 minutes, until the crust is as golden as the spoils of war and the filling bubbles with the rage of battle.
   • Let the pie cool, as the battlefield stills after the storm of war.

Feast upon this Blood-Soaked Apple Pie, a tribute to the glory and might of Khorne!
