Behold the beauty of this swirly apple tart, and simply skip the top crust.
Ingredients
- 1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup cold butter
- 6 to 7 tablespoons cold water
- 5 medium apples, peeled and sliced
- 3 tablespoons butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1/4 cup apricot preserves
- 1 tablespoon water
Directions
- In a large bowl, combine flour and salt; cut in butter until crumbly. Sprinkle with cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, and toss with a fork until dough can be formed into a ball.
- On a floured surface, roll out dough into a 13-in. circle. Place on an ungreased 12-in. pizza pan; turn edges under. Beginning at the outside, arrange apples in a circular patter, overlapping each slice. Make a second circle facing the opposite direction. Continue alternating directions until crust is covered.
- Brush apples with melted butter; sprinkle with sugar. Bake at 400° for 40-50 minutes or until apples are tender and crust is golden.
- Combine preserves and water; brush over apples. Serve warm.

Meet the Cook: Almost like a pizza, this tart's easy to pick up and eat out of your hand. Kids love it. Like most of my best recipes, it came from my mom. Since it's so pretty, I fix it for fancy gatherings such as ladies get-togethers...but I make it to serve at informal barbecues as well.
We have two daughters, 5 and 2.
