TWD: French Apple Tart

 I wish I could tell you how this tastes, but I have no idea.  We are really trying to watch our calories around here so we dropped this off to some friends.  I hate that you can't taste this kind of thing before you give it to someone.  I did try all the components by themselves when I was making it and they were all pretty good.  I imagine this would be delicious with a scoop of ice cream and maybe some caramel sauce.....I just decided that I shouldn't have given it away..... :)

I just used the pie crust recipe that I normally use.  I was ready to use the recipe in the book, but I didn't have pastry flour, so I just stuck with what I knew.
It wasn't super hard.  Maybe a little harder than a regular apple pie but it looks so pretty.  If you'd like to try the recipe you can get it at Law's of the Kitchen, our host blog for the week.

And if you'd liked to see how the other TWD bakers fared this week, you can go HERE.

  3. I also thought of caramel filling, after I made the tart. Oh well, another time.

  4. Personally, I didn't think this was the best apple tart I've ever had, but maybe caramel sauce would change that! Your tart looks absolutely gorgeous - I'm sure it was very much appreciated and loved!

  5. Very nice looking tart. I can't believe you gave it away without trying it!!! I gave some slices to friends to try as I love getting other people's opinions. Liking the idea of caramel sauce! A slice of tart (warm) with vanilla ice cream and caramel sauce.....yes that sounds divine!

  6. Such restraint! Not sure I could bake any deliciousness and give it away without sampling it first. Nice looking tart. Caramel would be delicious with this.
