APPLE CHEDDAR COUNTRY TART

Apple tart recipe that came from Block Island. Easy, very good. I didn't think I would like apples with cheddar cheese, but the taste is outstanding.

Categories     Tarts

Time 50m

Yield 1 tart, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 double crust pie crust
5 fuji apples, Granny Smith apples or 5 golden delicious apples, peeled, cored and thinly sliced
3/4 cup white sugar
2 tablespoons flour
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 cup raisins (optional)
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 dash nutmeg
1 dash salt (I used 1/4 1 dash 1/8 tsp accordingly)
1 cup grated sharp cheddar cheese
1/8 cup sugar, mixed with
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • On floured work surface, rool out pastry dough into a 16" round.
  • Fold dough in half and transfer to a lightly greased baking sheet. Set aside.
  • (note: I use prepurchased pie dough already in two rounds, so I simply lay one on the sheet and top with the second. You end up with a round tart this way).
  • In a large bowl, combine apples, sugar, flour, lemon, raisins, cinnamon,nutmeg and salt. Gently stir to blend.
  • Mound apple mixture in the middle of the dough, leaving two to four inches all around the edge.
  • Scatter cheddar cheese over mixture.
  • Fold edge over filling all the way around, pleating pastry as needed.
  • Lightly baste with water, then sprinkle sugar/cinnamon mix on top.
  • Bake tart in preheated oven until pastry is golden and apples are tender, about 30 to 35 minutes.

Tips:

  • To ensure the crust bakes evenly, pre-bake it for 15 minutes before filling it.
  • Use a food processor to quickly and easily make the crust dough.
  • If you don't have a food processor, you can use a pastry blender or two forks to cut the butter into the flour.
  • Be sure to chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out. This will help prevent the crust from shrinking in the oven.
  • When rolling out the dough, use a light touch and avoid overworking it. Otherwise, the crust will be tough.
  • To prevent the filling from bubbling over, use a pastry brush to brush the edges of the crust with egg wash before baking.
  • Serve the tart warm or at room temperature with a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream.

Conclusion:

This apple cheddar n' spice cookie tart is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of sweet apples, sharp cheddar cheese, and warm spices is sure to please everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give this tart a try.
