1 refrigerated pie crust (from 15-ounce package)
1 egg white, lightly beaten
1/2 cup sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
a little freshly grated nutmeg, if desired
3-4 apples, peeled and thinly sliced (I ended up using only three as they were large)
TOPPING (optional)
2 T. flour
2 T. brown sugar
1 T. butter
DIRECTIONS
1. Preheat oven to 425°F. Prepare crust as directed on package. Place on foil-lined 12-inch pizza pan. If necessary, press out any folds or creases. Brush crust with about 1/2 of the beaten egg white.
2. Mix sugar, cornstarch and cinnamon in medium bowl. Toss with apples. Spoon into center of crust, spreading to within 2 inches of edges. Fold 2-inch edge of crust up over apples, pleating or folding crust as needed. Brush crust with remaining egg white.
3. Mix flour and brown sugar together. Cut in butter until it forms crumbs. Sprinkle on top of the apples. If not using the topping, sprinkle the outside crust with about a teaspoon of sugar.
4. Bake about 40 minutes or until apples are tender. Cool slightly before serving.

Looks great & seems easy enough!
ReplyDeleteI think it's time for me to move into your neighborhood :-) I'll pop over for dessert a few times each week!
ReplyDeleteOh, Kitty, that sounds absolutely fantastic! I'm bookmarking this one! Once I'm done eating all this pumpkin desserts I made, I'll move on to apples.
ReplyDeleteHugs, Beth
Yum! Kitty, this tart looks delicious and I like the folding over of the crust too. Gives apple pie a whole new look. Thank you so much for sharing the recipe with us and coming by to tea. Have a delightful week and keep those yummy recipes coming!
ReplyDeleteBlessings,

Kitty, that looks so good! I LOVE warm apple deserts. I'll have to make it soon....maybe tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteHave a great week!

Kitty, your apple tart looks delicious, and I'm sure it tastes delicious too! Will have to give it a try. My daughter made apple crisp for us over the weekend. It was yummy too. ~ Phyllis
ReplyDeleteOh thank you, this tart looks and sounds so good and easy! I'll be making this soon for hubby and me! What a cute verse on your mug, so true! Have a wonderful week!

Oh Kitty - we definitely share taste buds! (Or as my friend Tonya says...Sisters that got lost in the lunch line=). I have a very similar recipe on my pile of 'to try' that I have been eyeing for some time. I love that it doesn't make a big batch too. Looks wonderful - love your new mug too. So glad you shared.
ReplyDeleteLove the addition of corn starch, that's a little different and lighter than flour. Your tart is very pretty Kitty! I've been craving some sort of pie and think that needs to be addressed this weekend:@)
ReplyDeleteKitty, this doesn't sound too hard. I think I could make it. Loving the refrigerated crust.
ReplyDeleteOh boy - talk about comfort food - that looks INCREDIBLE, Kitty!!!!
ReplyDeleteOh the apple tart looks delicious. I will give it a try and especially with the vanilla ice cream.

ReplyDeleteYumm Kitty! This looks amazing. In fact, I might make this in the morning . I happen to have the pie crust and apples. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI'm just like you. Pumpkin and apple are my two favorite autumn tastes. This looks really delicious to me and easy to make, too.
ReplyDeleteYou are always the best at giving us the tasty recipes. I love the rustic apple tart photo so tempting for fall. Then, you show us the $ tree mug which is so pretty and with the great saying. Thanks for sharing your cooking and baking recipes!
