Halloween Apple Tart

Name: Halloween Apple Tart

Cook time: 40 min
Total time: 60 min
Yield: 8 servings
Ingredients: Shortcrust pastry; Cornflour; 3-4 Bramley apples; 10-12 tbsp Caster sugar; Egg wash

Every Halloween we have my Nanny's Apple Tart but the special thing is, there's money inside. It was always an argument to see who got the most, we even cut it in the hop to strike gold. Well in this case a 50p! There's desserts that bring back the best memories and this one is the centrepiece of our family. Buttery short pastry with delicious sweet but slightly tart Bramely Apples. There isn't a better combination in my opinion. The only problem I run into, is it with custard or ice cream?

Method

Turn cooking mode on

Step 1

Get a batch of pastry made or use store bought. Our shortcrust pastry recipe is on the App. Get your pastry onto a lightly floured surface and cut this roughly in half. Have one half slightly bigger as this will be the top. Roll this out to the size of your plate, we use a 9 inch Pyrex plate. Lightly grease this and dust with some flour. Place your base layer of pastry onto this.

They look amazing Heather, delighted you enjoyed them 😄 My Mum would cook her apples of a bit but I much prefer this method 🙌🏻 They don't go quite as mushy I find 🤤

Sure the apples need used up 😂 That's a great wee idea, perfect for when you want a quick wee dessert 🙌🏻
