  • 1/4 TEASPOON Salt
  • 4-6 Tbsp Ice water
  • 7-10 Tbsp Cling film

Directions

  1. 1

    Knead butter, coconut oil, flour and salt with the dough hook of the hand mixer to a crumbly mass. Then add four tablespoons of ice water and knead to a smooth short pastry (possibly add another one or two tablespoons of ice water if the pastry is too crumbly).

  2. 2

    Wrap in foil and refrigerate for two to three hours. Squeeze the lemon and put it in 1/2 litre water. Peel and quarter apples, remove the core and cut the apple quarters into slices.

  3. 3

    Place in the lemon water. Roll out the short pastry between two layers of cling film or on a floured work surface two centimetres larger than the tart (26 centimetres diameter).

  4. 4

    Place in the form, press on and cut off the excess dough. Prick the base of the dough several times with a fork. Drain the apple slices well and lay them on the dough in flakes. Heat up the jam and brush the apple pieces with it. Bake in a preheated oven (electric range: 225 ° C/ gas: level 4) for 25 to 30 minutes (cover if necessary in between).

  5. 5

    Serve lukewarm dusted with icing sugar. Makes twelve pieces.
