A rustic apple tart made free-form on a baking sheet. It's tradition to have one of these at our house every fall. Use your own tart crust or, if I may make a suggestion, use my Favorite Tart Pastry. Prep time does not include making pastry. Ingredients:
1 sweet tart crust |
4 -5 golden delicious apples or 4 -5 similar apples, peeled,cored and sliced 1/4 inch thick |
1 tablespoon lemon juice |
3 tablespoons granulated sugar |
1/3 cup apricot jam |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 425°.
2. Toss apples with lemon juice.
3. On a floured surface, roll dough out to a 1/8 thick rectangle to fit a baking sheet; place pastry on baking sheet.
4. Cover the pastry with the apple slices, overlapping them in three long rows, and leaving a 1 border of pastry all the way around the apples; apples should be overlapped closely enough to almost stand upright.
5. Fold the 1 border of pastry up to and slightly overlapping the apples; sprinkle with 2 T of sugar.
6. Bake 25-30 minutes or until apples and crust are browned; remove and sprinkle with the remaining 1 T of sugar.
7. Melt the apricot jam in the microwave and brush it onto the apples; serve warm or cooled.
