Apple tartlets

Ingredients

Directions

1. 1

   Put flour, fat in pieces, sugar and 4-5 tablespoons of water into a mixing bowl and knead first with the dough hooks of the hand mixer. Then work into a smooth dough with cool hands. Let it rest in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes. Grease 6 cake tins (approx. 12 cm Ø). Divide the dough into 6 equally sized pieces and roll out each of them in the size of the moulds on a lightly floured work surface.

2. 2

   Line the moulds with the dough. Prick several times with a fork and pre-bake in a preheated oven (electric range: 200 °C/gas: level 3) for approx. 8 minutes. In the meantime, peel and quarter the apples and cut out the core. Cut apples into thin slices and sprinkle with lemon juice. Remove the tartlets from the oven. Pat the apple slices dry and place them on the dough in a fan shape. Bake in the oven at the same temperature for about 30 minutes. Spread the apples with jam 20 minutes before the end of the baking time. Let them cool down on a cake rack.
