Directions: |
Directions:Sieve the flour into a large bowl. Add the sugar and stir to combine. Add the chopped butter and rub the butter into the flour until it resembles breadcrumbs. Then, add the milk a little at a time and use a fork to bring the mixture together into pastry dough. Gather the pastry into your hands and wrap it in cling wrap. Place the pastry in the fridge and leave to rest for at least an hour.
Grease a 9 inch tart plate with a little butter. Once the pastry has rested, roll it out on a floured surface until it is about 3mm (1/8 inch) in thickness.
Preheat the oven to 180 C/ 350 F. Peel and core the apples and then slice thin slices of apple using a vegetable peeler. Put the apple slices into the pastry case and then sprinkle the castor sugar and the vanilla extract on top. Cover with a lid of pastry and tuck the pastry together with your thumbprint all around the edges. Brush the pastry with some of the beaten egg (you won’t need it all) and sprinkle the teaspoon of castor sugar on top. Then, pierce a hole in the center to let the steam escape. Put the tart in the oven for 40/50 minutes.
Once cooked, serve as soon as you can with freshly whipped cream. Nothing beats warm apple tart with cream. |
