Glazed Apple Tart Recipe

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Butter an 8-inch round baking pan.

To start the pastry, sift the flour and salt into a bowl.

Add the butter to the flour mixture and cut it in finely until it resembles coarse bread crumbs. Stir in 1 tablespoon of sugar, the egg yolk, and cold water.

Knead the dough gently until it's smooth, then chill it for 15 minutes.

Sprinkle the remaining sugar over the apples. Peel, core, and cut the Granny Smith apples into fairly thin slices.

Arrange a layer of these apple slices in overlapping circles in the bottom of your prepared pan.

Bake the tart in the preheated oven for 40 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and cooked through.

Carefully turn the warm tart out onto a serving plate.
