Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 g All-purpose flour
- 100 g Vegan butter, chilled and cubed
- 30 g Granulated sugar
- 1 pinch Salt
- 3 tbsp Cold water
- 4 Apples (like Granny Smith or Golden Delicious)
- 3 tbsp Apricot jam
- 1 tbsp Water for glaze
- 1 tbsp Lemon juice
- 1 tsp Cinnamon
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 50 g Brown sugar
Instructions
To make the crust, combine the flour, sugar, and salt in a large bowl.
Add the cubed vegan butter to the dry ingredients and mix using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually add the cold water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing lightly until the dough comes together. Form the dough into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, peel the apples, core them, and slice them thinly. Put them into a bowl and toss with lemon juice, cinnamon, and vanilla extract.
Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F). Roll out the chilled dough on a lightly floured surface until it's about 1/4 inch thick. Transfer it to a tart pan, pressing it into the edges and trimming the excess.
Arrange the apple slices in concentric circles over the crust, starting from the outside and working your way in.
Sprinkle the brown sugar evenly over the apples.
Bake the tart in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the apples are tender.
While the tart is baking, prepare the glaze by heating the apricot jam and water in a small saucepan over low heat until smooth.
Once the tart is out of the oven, brush the warm apricot glaze over the apples to give them a shine and added layer of flavor.
Allow the tart to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your Vegan Classic French Apple Tart!
