Ingredients:  
FILLING (1 Tart)
1-1/2 lbs McIntosh, Macoun, or Empire apples (3 lbs)
1/4 tsp grated orange zest
1/4 C all-purpose flour
1/4 C granulated or superfine sugar
1/4 tsp kosher salt

Directions:
PASTRY:
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Roll the pastry into an 11-inch circle on a lightly floured surface. Transfer it to a baking sheet lined with parchment.
FILLING:
For the filling, peel, core, and quarter the apples. Cut each quarter into 3 chunks. Toss the chunks with the orange zest. Cover the tart dough with the apple chunks, leaving a 1-1/2 inch border.
Combine the flour, sugar, salt, cinnamon, and allspice in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a steel blade. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture is crumbly. Pour into a bowl and rub it with your fingers until it starts holding together. Sprinkle evenly on the apples. Gently fold the border over the apples, pleating it to make a circle.
Bake the crostata for 20-25 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the apples are tender. Let the tart cool for 5 minutes, then use 2 large spatulas to transfer it to a wire rack.
