This European-style tart is easy when you shape it on a cookie sheet. You’ll love this cinnamon treat warm from the oven.:
Crust
- 1 box Pillsbury refrigerated pie crusts, softened as directed on box
Filling
- ½ cup sugar
- 4 teaspoons cornstarch
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 4 cups thinly sliced, peeled cooking apples (4 medium)
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 2 tablespoons chopped pecans or walnuts
Topping
- Whipped cream, if desired
- Heat oven to 450°F. Remove pie crust from pouch; place flat on ungreased cookie sheet.
- In medium bowl, mix ½ cup sugar, the cornstarch and cinnamon. Gently stir in apples. Spoon apple mixture onto center of crust, spreading to within 2 inches of edge. Fold crust edge over filling to form 2-inch border, pleating crust as necessary. Brush crust edge with water; sprinkle with 1 teaspoon sugar.
- Bake 15 minutes or until crust is golden brown. Sprinkle pecans over apple mixture. Bake 5 to 15 minutes longer or until apples are tender. Serve with whipped cream.
