[farfallina]

Hi everyone..

As of today, my blog is 4 years old. I can't believe how fast the time goes. It feels like yesterday when I started it! 
I made this Apple Tart to celebrate its 4th year.

I hope you enjoy it.c


Ingredients:

Tart:
Peel of a lemon or an orange, cut into pieces (without the white)
80g brown sugar
300g flour
1 egg (60g)
1 egg yolk
130g cold butter, chopped into small pieces
1 tsp baking powder

Cream:
3 eggs (60g each)
60g sugar
20g vanilla sugar
500g mascarpone
40g flour

To decorate:
3 Golden apples, peeled, thinly sliced (my apples weighed around 200g each)*
3 tbsps brown sugar
10g melted butter

*You can take this video as reference while slicing your apples.


Preparation:

Tart:

    Place lemon (or orange) peel in TM Bowl together with sugar. Pulverize for 10 seconds on Speed 8.

    Add the remaining tart ingredients, mix for 20 seconds on Speed 5.

    Wrap with stretch film and let it rest in the fridge for 15 minutes before you use.


Cream:

    Insert Butterfly. Add eggs, sugar and vanilla sugar. Beat for 6 minutes on Speed 3.
    Remove Butterfly.
    Start Thermomix on Speed 4. Add mascarpone through the hole of TM Lid by spoon.
    Add flour and blend for 10 seconds on Speed 3-4.


Putting everything together:

    Grease a 23cm round and deep tart or cake pan. (My pan is 24cm) Cover with baking paper.

    Cover pan's bottom and sides with tart dough.

    Pour cream over the tart base.

    Decorate with apple slices.

    Sprinkle apples with brown sugar and brush with melted butter.

    Bake for 50 minutes in preheated oven at 180°C.

    Let it cool at room temperature. Then let it cool in the fridge for several hours and serve.


Enjoy.
