1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
1 half of a lemon, or the juice of half a lemon (to acidulate the water for holding the apples while you peel them to keep them from discoloring)

1/2 cup lightly packed grated cheddar cheese
Finishing:
1 egg for egg wash
Coarse sugar for sprinkling on the crust

Steps:

Sprinkle with maple syrup and cinnamon and gently toss so that the apple slices are lightly coated with both. Add the minute tapioca and the lemon zest. Gently toss again.
  • Arrange apple slices on the dough: Starting from 2 inches from the perimeter of the pastry round, arrange the apple slices, side by side, in a circular pattern, filling the circle. It's okay if some of the apple slices overlap a little.

  • Mound apple mixture in the middle of the dough, leaving two to four inches all around the edge.

  • Chill the dough before rolling it out. This will make it easier to work with.
  • Bake the tart until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
  • Let the tart cool slightly before serving. This will allow the filling to set.
