Easy Apple Pie Tart

Apple Pie Tart is a wild, flaky, crispy galette (French pastry dough) folded over juicy fresh apples dotted with cinnamon and brown sugar, but made in a pie pan!

Ingredient

Food ration :

One 9-inch Pie

1 1/2 cups

unbleached all-purpose flour/maida

3/4 cup

(or 1 ½ sticks) cold butter, cut into small pieces

1/4 tsp

apples, peeled, cored and sliced

1/4-1/2 cup

organic [turbinado cane sugar (or use regular sugar or brown sugar)

2 tsp

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, stir flour and salt with a whisk. Add the chilled butter and mix with your fingers until the mixture forms coarse pea sized crumbs. You can do this in a food processor too (much faster) by pulsing the flour, salt and cold butter or use a pastry cutter.

* Step 2

Add 2 to 3 teaspoons of chilled water and make a dough that comes together which is not sticky and that you can gather to form a ball. Do not handle the dough too much. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for about 15 to 20 minutes.

* Step 3

Grease the bottom and sides of a glass pie pan (9 or 10-inch) with butter and keep aside. While the pastry dough is chilling, peel, core and slice the apples into slices. Remove the chilled dough and on a floured surface, roll into a disc that is about at least 1 ½ inches larger than the bottom of the pie pan.

* Step 4

Using rolling pin, gently lift the rolled dough and place on the pan. Press along the edges of the pan to fit the dough. Leave the edges rough, no need to crimp or make any design. Sprinkle some cane sugar over the bottom of rolled pastry pie dough (about 2 to 3 tbsp).

* Step 5

Start layering the slices of apples in a concentric circle until you fill it completely, overlapping the edges of the slices. Melt butter and brush over the sides (along the outer edge of the crust) and over the slices of apples. Sprinkle cinnamon powder and some more sugar over the apples. Fold the outer edge of the dough over the apple filling to cover it all around, like a galette.
