Ingredients

Directions

1. 1

   For the dough, knead icing sugar, 400 g flour, 175 g butter and 1 egg until smooth. Cover and chill for about 30 minutes.

2. 2

   For the compote, peel, quarter, core and cut apples into pieces. Caramelise the sugar in a large, wide pot while stirring until golden. Melt 50 g butter in it. Deglaze with lemon juice.

3. 3

   Add apples and simmer for about 5 minutes. Remove apples with a skimmer. Stir 1 tsp. starch and 1 tbsp. cold water until smooth. Boil up the caramel. Stir in the starch and simmer for 1 minute, stirring continuously (if necessary, thicken with 1⁄2 TL starch).

4. 4

   Fold in apples and cranberries.

5. 5

   Roll out the marzipan round (approx. 26 cm Ø). Grease a tart mould with a lifting base (26 cm Ø) and dust with flour. Approximately 2⁄3 of the dough on little flour roll out round (approx. 30 cm Ø) and line the form with it.

6. 6

   Press the dough at the edge, cut off any excess dough. Prick the base more often with a fork. Place marzipan on top.

7. 7

   Preheat oven (electric cooker: 175 °C/circulating air: 150 °C/gas: see manufacturer). Knead dough and remaining dough and roll out round (approx. 28 cm Ø). Use a knife to cut into strips approx. 1 cm wide.

8. 8

   Put the compote into the mould. Place half of the dough strips on top with a gap between them. Place the rest of the strips diagonally on top, forming a grid. Whisk the egg yolk and milk. Brush the dough grid with it. Bake in the oven on the lowest shelf for 35-40 minutes.

9. 9

   Let it cool down. Dust with icing sugar.
