Ingredients

The following ingredients have 8 Servings
  • 1 medium apple (, peeled, cored, and chopped)
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 2½ tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • ¼ teaspoon sugar
  • pinch salt
  • 1 tablespoon salted butter (, chilled - plus 1 additional tablespoon butter, chopped to dot on top of apples)
  • 1 teaspoon ice water

Instruction

  • Heat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Toss the apple slices into a large bowl and stir in the sugar, cinnamon and lemon juice. Let sit while you prepare the dough.
  • In a small bowl, combine the flour, sugar and salt.
  • Using a fork, cut in the butter until the mixture resembles wet sand.
  • Add the water and stir to form dough.
  • Transfer the dough to a cutting board and roll into a ball.
  • So the dough doesn't stick, sprinkle a little flour on the cutting board and on the ball of dough and using a roller or a large glass, roll out the dough to form a circle.
  • Lightly oil a small tart or pie pan. Fit the crust into the pan. Poke the bottom of the pie crust with a fork a few times.
  • Pour in apples and dot with butter.
  • Bake for 20 minutes or until crust is golden brown.
