Ingredients

Servings:6
  • 1 1/2 cups All-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup Unsalted butter, cold and cubed
  • 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
  • 4 tablespoons Ice water
  • 3 large Granny Smith apples, peeled and sliced
  • 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup Brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
  • 1 large Egg wash (1 egg beaten with water)
  • 2 tablespoons Apricot preserves(optional)

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a food processor, pulse flour and granulated sugar, then add cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

  2. 2

    Add ice water one tablespoon at a time, pulsing until the dough just begins to come together into a ball.

  3. 3

    Wrap the dough in plastic wrap, flatten into a disk, and refrigerate for at least 45 minutes.

  4. 4

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and toss the apple slices with brown sugar, cinnamon, and lemon juice in a large bowl.

  5. 5

    Roll out the chilled dough on a piece of parchment paper into a 12-inch rough circle.

  6. 6

    Arrange the apple slices in the center of the dough, leaving a 2-inch border, then fold the edges of the dough over the apples.

  7. 7

    Brush the dough edges with egg wash and bake for 35-40 minutes until the crust is golden brown and apples are tender.

  8. 8

    Optional: Warm the apricot preserves and brush over the hot apples for a professional French bakery shine.
