Ingredients Needed
- For the Dough:
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup sugar (100 g)
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil (50 ml)
- 1/2 cup butter (60 g)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla sugar (8 g)
- 2 and 3/4 cups flour (350 g)
- 1 tablespoon baking powder (10 g)
- For the Filling:
- 3 apples (400 g)
- Juice of half a lemon
- 2 cups of milk (480 ml)
- 2 egg yolks
- 1/3 cup of sugar (67 g)
- Lemon zest
- 3/4 cup cornstarch (90 g)
- 1 cup whipping cream (200 ml)
- 2-3 tablespoons of flaked almonds
Preparation Steps
Step 1: Prepare the Dough
Start by combining the eggs, sugar, vegetable oil, butter, vanilla sugar, flour, and baking powder in a bowl. Mix until smooth. Once combined, place a portion of the dough into the freezer for later use.
Step 2: Prepare the Apples
Peel and cut the apples into small pieces. To prevent oxidation, add the juice of half a lemon to the apples as you prepare them.
Step 3: Make the Filling
In a separate pot, combine the milk, egg yolks, sugar, lemon zest, and cornstarch. Mix well until there are no lumps. Cook this mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly until it begins to boil.
Once it’s boiling, add the chopped apples and continue stirring until the mixture thickens. This process will ensure the apples are evenly coated and the filling is creamy.
Step 4: Assemble the Tart
Take the thickened apple mixture off the heat and let it cool slightly. Then, add the whipping cream to the mixture and stir until well combined.
Take the dough from the freezer and grate it over the top of the apple filling using a coarse grater. This will create a delightful crust over the apples.
Step 5: Bake
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and bake the tart for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown.
Step 6: Finishing Touches
Once baked, allow the tart to cool completely before removing it from the mold. Dust with powdered sugar before serving for that perfect finishing touch!
Enjoy your delicious homemade apple tart! This quick dessert is perfect for any occasion and is sure to leave everyone asking for seconds. Happy baking!
