Lazy Apple Tart

I've been so so so lazy to post recipes lately even with a kitchen that's constantly in use!  I wanted to share an easy bread recipe with you today since I've been baking bread for months but when I checked pictures I've taken, there weren't any. Lol,I guess I was snapping mental images in my head while making the bread.

Anyway, here's my take on the easiest Apple Tart ever.  Cutting and coring apples will take a little of your time and I've been tempted to just bake whole apples on top of a pie crust but we all know that's just silly.

The apples I used were a mix from the Graves Mountain Apple Harvest, they were different sizes and types of apples so you're going to have to eyeball how many sliced apples you need to fit a flat 9 inch pie crust.  I found out that baked apples will shrink, you'll see in the picture below so go ahead and stuff em tarts! ;-D



Ingredients:
9 inch pie crust (thaw if frozen)
4-5 Apples (cored and sliced, peeling is optional)
1/4 cup Honey/sugar  (add more if you want it ultra sweet)
Butter (about 1 tbsp, add more if you want it buttery)

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees
2. Grease baking pan/sheet large enough to fit a 9 inch pie crust
3. Cut an apple in half right through the stem and core or cut the seeds and stems off 
4. Lay the half pieces down and cut/slice thinly across
5. Place pie crust on greased cookie sheet and overlap apple slices on top of the pie crust, drizzle with Honey or sprinkle with sugar.
6. Fold remaining sides of crust over the apples and put small pieces of cut butter (or brush melted butter) over the apples and crust. 
7. Bake for 45 to 50 mins or until crust is golden brown













Enjoy!
