Best 5 Apple Tart In Phyllo Recipes

APPLE FRANGIPANE PHYLLO TART

Steps:

• Place one sheet of phyllo dough on a work surface; coat with cooking spray. (Keep remaining phyllo covered with plastic wrap and a damp towel to prevent it from drying out.) Gently press phyllo into a 9-in. tart pan, allowing ends to extend over edges of pan., Layer with remaining phyllo, spraying after each layer; arrange in pan, rotating phyllo so corners do not overlap. Fold in overhanging phyllo, to form a pastry shell., Place almonds and sugar in a food processor; cover and process until finely ground. Add the flour, butter and salt; pulse until blended., Add the egg yolks, amaretto and almond extract; cover and pulse to blend well. Spread filling over the bottom of phyllo shell., Halve apples and thinly slice widthwise. Arrange apples in a pinwheel pattern over filling., Bake at 375° for 40-50 minutes or until apples are tender. Cover edges with foil during the last 15 minutes to prevent overbrowning if necessary. Remove to a wire rack and cool slightly. Brush warmed jelly over apples. Serve warm. Refrigerate leftovers.

CARAMELIZED APPLES IN PHYLLO TARTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. On a work surface,stack the phyllo sheets and cut out four 7-inch squares (12 total), discarding the scraps. Stack the squares between 2 sheets of wax paper and cover with a kitchen towel.
• Spray the countertop and 4 individual ring molds with nonstick cooking spray. Lay a square of phyllo on the counter and sprinkle with some of the 2 teaspoons of sugar; lay a second square on top, brush with the melted butter, and sprinkle with sugar. Cover with a third layer and sprinkle with sugar.
• Work the phyllo into the ring mold as you would a handkerchief into a pocket, letting the edges overhang. Repeat with the remaining phyllo. Place the molds on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until golden brown. Carefully transfer the phyllo shells to a rack.
• Combine the apples, lemon juice, and apple juice and set aside. In a nonstick skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon sugar and caramelize for 3 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the heat, add the Cognac, and stir with a wooden spoon. Return the pan to the heat, add the spices and apple mixture, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the apples are tender, about 5 minutes.
• Divide the apples among the shells and sprinkle with crystallized ginger.

• Brush a 9-inch-square or 10-inch round tart pan with a removable fluted rim with some butter. On a work surface arrange 1 sheet phyllo with a short side facing you and brush with some butter, On it layer 3 more sheets phyllo and more butter in same manner and line pan, pressing phyllo into pan with fingertips and leaving short sides overhanging.
• Repeat layering procedure with remaining phyllo and some of remaining butter and arrange in pan at a 90-degree angle to the first lining, easing to fit. Put pan on a baking sheet and roll overhanging edges under loosely (outside the pan) to form a decorative edge. Brush edge with remaining butter and spread fig mixture evenly on bottom.
• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Peel, quarter, and core apples and cut each quarter in 3 or 4 wedges. Arrange apple wedges over fig mixture in decorative pattern and sprinkle with granulated sugar. Bake tart in middle of oven 40 minutes.
• In a small bowl stir together yogurt and egg.
• Remove tart from oven and increase oven temperature to 475°F. Pour yogurt mixture over apples and cover edge of tart with foil. Return tart to oven and bake 15 minutes, or until apples begin to brown. Cool tart in pan on a rack 30 minutes and sprinkle with almonds and confectioners' sugar.

LAYERED APPLE PIE WITH PHYLLO CRUST

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°F. Brush pie pan with about 1 Tbsp. butter.
• Whisk granulated sugar, brown sugar, and cinnamon in a medium bowl.
• Place 2 phyllo sheets on a work surface with the long side facing you; keep remaining phyllo covered with plastic wrap. Using pastry brush, lightly brush entire surface with butter, then sprinkle 1 Tbsp. cinnamon sugar on right half of phyllo. Fold left half of both sheets over to enclose sugar. Brush surface lightly with butter. Press folded phyllo, buttered side down, into center and edges of prepared pan, leaving an equal overhang on two opposite sides. Repeat with remaining phyllo sheets, rotating where the overhang lies to create a star-like pattern.
• Pour lemon juice into a large bowl. Very thinly slice apples crosswise into rounds with mandoline (about 1 mm thick), transferring to lemon juice and tossing gently to coat as you go.
• Layer apple slices in phyllo-lined pan, overlapping in concentric circles to form a single even layer. Sprinkle with 1 Tbsp. cinnamon sugar. Repeat with remaining apple slices, sprinkling with 1 Tbsp. cinnamon sugar between each layer and pressing firmly with clean hands to compact. Repeat until pan is full, then sprinkle top with 2 Tbsp. cinnamon sugar (you may have leftover cinnamon sugar depending on the size of your apples; save for another use).
• Place pie pan on a rimmed baking sheet and tent with 2 pieces of overlapping foil, making sure phyllo crust is fully covered. Bake pie 2 hours. Remove foil and continue to bake until crust is golden brown, 15-20 more minutes. Transfer to a wire rack. Using a clean pastry brush, brush juices from the edges of filling over top to create a shiny glaze. Let cool completely (apples will collapse and set as pie cools; this is okay) before serving.
• Do Ahead
• Pie can be made 1 day ahead; store at room temperature.
