Dessert

Recipes by Tim Huitt, Valley Eatery, Visalia, CA

Yields1 Serving
 810 Granny Smith apples, peeled and cubed
 2 tsp cinnamon
  cup sugar
 Lemon juice
 3 cubes butter
 1.50 sugar
 3 cups flour, plus more for rolling out crust
 3 tbsp apricot jam
 Whipping cream for topping
1

Preheat your oven to 375F

2

Prep your filling: peel and cut apples into small ½-inch cubes. Mix in a bowl with cinnamon, sugar, and lemon. Set aside.

3

Mix butter, sugar, and flour by hand until the dough is well combined. Continue mixing until it feels wet to the touch.

4

Set aside ⅓ of the dough, then take the remaining amount and flatten it to the bottom and sides of a 9x13-inch pan.

5

Add 3 tablespoons of dough to the bottom of the flattened crust, to help soak up additional juices from the apples, preventing a soggy tart.

6

Pour the apple mixture into the pan.

7

Take the reserved dough and flatten it on a floured surface. Cut the dough into long ½-inch pieces and place on top of the apples in a grid-like pattern. Take the extra pieces and line the perimeter of the pan to finish off the crust.

8

Brush whipping cream liberally on the tart crust.

9

Bake the tart for approximately 1.5 hours, or until a dark golden brown.

10

Using the stove or microwave, heat the apricot jam until boiling. Brush on the golden crust for the perfect shine.

11

Allow the tart to cool before serving. Plate with a dollop of freshly whipped cream and serve with a cup of coffee.
