Time 1h25m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups all-purpose flour
¾ cup butter, softened
2 eggs, beaten, divided
⅓ cup white sugar
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 pounds tart apples - peeled, cored, and sliced
½ cup sultana raisins
¼ cup white sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch cake pan.
  • Combine flour, butter, 1 1/2 egg, 1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar, and 1 teaspoon cinnamon in a large bowl. Knead by hand to form a smooth, consistent dough.
  • Turn dough out onto a lightly floured work surface. Roll out 3/4 of the dough into a 10-inch circle; press over the bottom and sides of the prepared cake pan.
  • Mix apples, sultanas, 1/4 cup white sugar, and 1 tablespoon cinnamon together in a bowl. Spread over the dough in the cake pan.
  • Roll out remaining dough into a circle; cut into strips about 1/3-inch wide. Form an X in the center of the tart with the 2 longest strips. Create a lattice by weaving vertical and horizontal strips in an over-and-under pattern, using the shortest strips for the edges. Press ends of the strips firmly to the edge of the tart; trim excess dough with a knife.
  • Brush remaining beaten egg over the dough.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until pastry is light brown, 60 to 65 minutes.

DUTCH APPLE PIE (OMA'S APPELTAART)



Dutch Apple Pie (Oma's Appeltaart) image

This recipe is for the traditional dutch apple pie, found on a Belgian website. It can be served both warm or cold, usually with whipped cream (but ice cream tastes great as well :D ). You will need a *springform* cake pan, or a lot of patience, or you will not be able to get the pie out! Because Dutch recipes generally use grams instead of cups for dry ingredients, I have included the measurements in grams as well. The dough is shortbread-like and may take a lot of time to get right. It took me ages to get it to form a ball, but it worked out fine in the end. If you're getting tired of it, add a little milk, but don't despair for with or without the milk, it *will* from a ball in the end. If you want, you can prepare the apple mixture the previous day and keep it in the fridge, the flavors will blend wonderfully. If you want to prepare the dough in advance, take it out of the fridge in time, because it's really hard to work with when it's just been in the fridge for a whole night. The preparation time is a rough estimate and assumes that you peel the apples while the dough is in the fridge. I'm quite slow at preparing so it could be anywhere between 1 and 2 hours for you. Last but not least, *do* make sure you have a bit of dough left over for the third to last step - you deserve a little something for all that hard work! :D

Time 3h15m

Yield 8-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 1/8 cups self-rising flour (300g)
3/4 cup butter (180g) or 3/4 cup margarine (180g)
1/2 cup brown sugar (150g)
1 teaspoon vanilla essence or 1 (8 g) packet vanilla sugar
1 pinch salt
2 1/4 lbs apples (1kg)
3/4 cup raisins (washed and dried, 100g)
1/4 cup granulated sugar (40g)
3 teaspoons cinnamon (or more to taste)
2 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice (or more to taste)
1 egg
3 tablespoons semolina (to absorb the juices)

Steps:

  • For the dough:.
  • Sieve the flour, brown sugar, vanilla and the salt into a bowl.
  • Cut the butter or margarine into small cubes and add these to the flour mixture.
  • Beat the egg and add 3/4 of it to the flour mixture (you will need the rest for the top).
  • Using two knives, mix the butter/margarine and the flour mixture.
  • Using one hand, kneed it to form the dough - you should be able to form it into a ball (this may take quite long).
  • Put the ball of dough in the fridge for about an hour, in the meantime, make the filling.
  • For the filling:.
  • Peel the apples and cut them in cubes (allow the sizes to vary--it'll taste better).
  • In a (large) bowl, combine apple, raisins, (granulated) sugar, cinnamon, the lemon juice and half of the semolina.
  • Mix well and allow the flavors to blend, stirring occasionally.
  • Then:.
  • Butter a 9-inch round springform cake pan, or spray it with a non-stick spray.
  • Line the pan (bottom and sides) with about 3/4 of the dough - as long as the pan is covered, the layer need not be very thick.
  • Cover the bottom with the remaining semolina.
  • Add the filling, but try to leave the juices out.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll out the remaining dough until it's less than 1/4 inch (1/2 cm) thick.
  • Cut the dough into strips and layer them over the apple pie to form a raster, covering no more than one third of the surface--you should be able to see quite a bit of the apple pieces (see picture).
  • If necessary, use (some of) the remaining dough to make the edges a bit higher.
  • Use the remaining egg to coat the dough strips.
  • Bake the pie at 175°C / 340°F, just below the middle of your oven, for about 75 minutes.
  • If you have any dough left, roll it out, sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon (or left-over apple mixture) and bake it on baking paper for a few minutes.
  • Remove the springform only *after* the pie has cooled.
  • Serve warm (reheat in oven or microwave) or cold, with whipped or ice cream, or freeze.

DUTCH APPLE PIE



Dutch Apple Pie image

The difference between classic apple pie and a Dutch apple pie recipe is all in the delicious crumb topping. Dutch apple pie topping is made with butter, Gold Medal™ flour, brown sugar and granulated sugar, and you'll know when it's ready to come out of the oven when the crumb toppings are a deep golden brown. Instead of a second pie crust, enjoy a generous blanket of sweet streusel crumbs-sprinkled over a tender spiced apple filling.

Time 2h45m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon shortening
2 to 3 tablespoons cold water
8 cups sliced cored peeled apples
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
2/3 cup packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon granulated sugar

Steps:

  • In medium bowl, mix 1 cup flour and the salt. Cut in shortening, using pastry blender (or pulling 2 table knives through ingredients in opposite directions), until particles are size of small peas. Sprinkle with cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, tossing with fork until all flour is moistened and pastry almost leaves side of bowl (1 to 2 teaspoons more water can be added if necessary). Gather pastry into a ball. Shape into flattened round on lightly floured surface. Wrap flattened round of pastry in plastic wrap, and refrigerate about 45 minutes or until dough is firm and cold, yet pliable. This allows the shortening to become slightly firm, which helps make the baked pastry more flaky. If refrigerated longer, let pastry soften slightly before rolling.
  • Heat oven to 400°F. On surface sprinkled with flour, using floured rolling pin, roll pastry dough into circle 2 inches larger than 9-inch pie plate. Fold pastry into fourths; place in pie plate. Unfold and ease into plate, pressing firmly against bottom and side and being careful not to stretch pastry, which will cause it to shrink when baked. Trim overhanging edge of pastry 1 inch from rim of pie plate. Fold and roll pastry under, even with plate; flute as desired.
  • In large bowl, toss Filling ingredients. Pour into pie plate, mounding apples toward center.
  • In medium bowl, use pastry blender or fingers to mix butter, 1 cup flour and the brown sugar until a crumb forms. Sprinkle evenly over top of pie. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon granulated sugar on top.
  • Bake 45 to 55 minutes or until pie crust and crumb topping are deep golden brown and filling begins to bubble. Transfer to cooling rack to cool.

DUTCH APPLE TART



Dutch Apple Tart image

This is a true "Dutch Apple Pie." This recipe comes from a cookbook I picked up in the heavily-Dutch populated city of Pella, Iowa. This recipe, however, which features a very crumbly butter crust, is very similar to the apple pie recipes I ate often in the Netherlands. I think the lemon rind in the crust is what sends this one over the top.

1/2 cup raisins (optional)
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
2 tablespoons jam
1 egg, beaten

Tips:

  • Use a quality apple: A good baking apple, such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp, will hold its shape and flavor well in the tartlet.
  • Slice the apples thinly: This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from becoming mushy.
  • Don't overfill the tartlet shells: Leave a little room at the top so that the filling doesn't bubble over.
  • Bake the tartlets until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling: This should take about 25-30 minutes.
  • Let the tartlets cool slightly before serving: This will help the filling to set.

Conclusion:

These Dutch apple pie tartlets are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With their flaky crust, sweet apple filling, and crumbly topping, they're sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give these tartlets a try. You won't be disappointed!
