Instructies
- Add the flour, salt, sugar, and fats together in the work bowl of a food processor/
- hand ( If mixing by hand, ensure to work the fat all they way into the dough before adding the water. )
- Pulse until the mixture looks like wet sand, with pea-sized lumps here and there.
- Slowly drizzle in water while running the machine until the dough forms a ball.
- If in doubt, add less water as opposed to more.
- Turn out the dough onto the counter and press to form a disc.
- Cover in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1/2 hour.
- Coring Apples with Teaspoon Measure Preheat your oven to 400º F.
- Juice your lemon and place the juice in a small bowl.
- Peel the apples, brushing them with lemon juice as you go to prevent discoloration.
- Slice the apples in half and core them.
- You can use a 1 tsp measure to core apples.
- Don’t forget to brush the insides with lemon juice, too.
- Roll out your pate brisee on a sheet of parchment or wax paper.
- The dough should be 1/8″ thick and should be larger than your tart tin on all sides.
- Invert the dough (using the parchment as support) over the center of the tart pan.
- If you’re making a pan-less galette, skip this step and move on to arranging the apples.
- Gently work the dough into the pan and start arranging your apple slices in rings, starting at the outside and working in towards the center.
- It won’t really matter what it looks like once it’s baked, so don’t freak out about aesthetics.
- Just make sure to jam a bunch of apples in there, since they’ll cook down as it bakes.
- If your dough gets too warm it may break apart, but just mend it.
- Once the apples are all in there, coat the top with the sugar and spices.
- Fold over the edges of the dough towards the center .
- Brush the entire tarte with melted Earth Balance and sprinkle with more sugar.
- Pour any leftover earth balance over the apples.
- Bake at 400º F for 45-55 minutes, or until the tarte is golden brown and the apples have color on them.
- Glaze with warmed jam.
- Let cool most of the way before slicing.
