This apple tart recipe is a real treat. It's utterly delicious and looks beautiful when you decorate the top with a pastry lattice.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 0.75 cups butter , softened
  • 2 large eggs , beaten, divided
  • 0.33 cups white sugar
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch pan.

  2. 2

    Combine flour, butter, 1 1/2 eggs, 1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar, and 1 teaspoon cinnamon in a large bowl. Knead by hand to form a smooth, consistent dough.

  3. 3

    Turn dough out onto a lightly floured work surface. Roll out 3/4 of the dough into a 10-inch circle; press over the bottom and up the sides of the prepared pan.

  4. 4

    Mix apples, sultanas, 1/4 cup white sugar, and 1 tablespoon cinnamon together in a bowl. Spread over dough in the cake pan.

  5. 5

    Roll out remaining dough into a circle; cut into strips about 1/3-inch wide. Form an X in the center of the tart with the 2 longest strips. Create a lattice by weaving vertical and horizontal strips in an over-and-under pattern, using the shortest strips for the edges. Press ends of the strips firmly to the edge of the tart; trim excess dough with a knife.

  6. 6

    Brush remaining beaten egg over dough.

  7. 7

    Bake in the preheated oven until pastry is light brown, 60 to 65 minutes.
