Queen of Tarts ππ
/This is an uncomplicated, beautiful apple tart. Any fruit can be used with this base. Sliced peaches or plums looks beautiful tooπ. Anything with a fluted edge looks so pretty and professional.
Ingredients:
Stick butter
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup flour
Β
Β
1 tsp baking powder
2 green apples
Apricot preserves
Directions:
Oven 350. Grease a tart pan with a removable bottom really well, set aside. Cream a softened stick of butter or margarine with a cup of sugar in a mixer with the paddle attachment. Mix a couple minutes on medium, scraping down the sides halfway through. Add a tsp of vanilla and two eggs. Mix.
Then add a cup of flour and a tsp of baking powder. Pour evenly into tart pan. Thinly slice a green apple or two, and mix slices with 2 tbsp of apricot preserves. Lay the slices in some sort of pattern. I started from the outside in, and it kinda looked like aπΉππ». Sprinkle the top with a nice dusting of cinnamon and sugar. Bake for one hour. Can be served with vanilla ice cream.
