Before you start
Preheat the oven to 180ºC, fan setting | Large saucepan | Tart tin lined with baking parchment | Food processor | Baking beans or rice | Peeler
Bake the base
- Roll the puff pastry out onto the tart case, push down to ensure it fits the tart and cut off any excess pastry around the rims.
- Fill the tart case with baking beans or rice.
- Bake for 15 minutes until golden.
- Once golden, remove from the oven and leave to one side until needed.
- Remove the baking beans.
While the pastry bakes, prepare the apples
- Peel the apples and cut into small pieces.
- Place the pieces into a large saucepan.
- Add 100ml of boiling water and cook for a few minutes before adding the sugar.
- Cook for 10 minutes, or until the apples feel soft.
- Once the apples feel soft, roughly crush about half of them with a fork (creating some purée and leaving some as chunks).
Make the topping
- Place all of the topping into a food processor and blend until a crumble mixture comes together, being careful not to over mix.
Assemble and bake pie
- Spoon the apple filling into the middle of the pre cooked tart case and use a spoon to smooth over the layer.
- Top with the crumble topping and pat down slightly.
- Cook for 10-15 minutes until golden brown on top.
Time to serve
Serve the tart with large spoonfuls of warm custard.
