Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 0.25 cup erythritol
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons golden flaxseed meal
- 2 tablespoons warm water
- 3 large Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons additional erythritol for sprinkling
- 2 tablespoons apricot sugar-free jam
- 1 tablespoon water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large bowl, mix the almond flour, melted butter, 0.25 cup of erythritol, vanilla extract, and salt until a dough forms. Press the mixture evenly into a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom. Pierce the dough with a fork to prevent bubbling.
Place the tart crust in the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes or until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly.
In a small bowl, mix the golden flaxseed meal with the warm water and let it sit for 5 minutes to thicken.
In another bowl, toss the apple slices with the lemon juice, thickened flaxseed mixture, cinnamon, nutmeg, and 2 tablespoons of erythritol until well coated.
Arrange the apple slices in the pre-baked tart crust in a circular pattern starting from the outside and working your way inwards.
Place the tart back in the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the apples are soft and the edges are slightly caramelized.
While the tart is baking, heat the apricot sugar-free jam with 1 tablespoon of water in a small saucepan over low heat until it becomes a smooth glaze.
Once the tart is done baking, brush the apricot glaze over the apples to give them a nice shine and extra flavor.
Allow the tart to cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. Slice and enjoy your Keto Classic French Apple Tart!
