This year, the
EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival will be the longest festival ever! It will run from July 15 to November 20 and will be filled with fantastic
food. Here's a sneak peek of one of this year's new desserts: Apple Crumble Tart. And the best part is, you can make it at home with this
recipe from the chefs at
Disney.
Apple Crumble Tart
Makes 8
Tart Dough:
5 Tbsp butter, softened
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 tsp salt
1 egg
1 cup all-purpose flour
Cream butter, sugar, and salt in bowl of electric mixer fitted with paddle attachment until fluffy. Add egg and mix until smooth. Add flour and mix on medium speed until combined.
Evenly divide dough into 8 balls. Roll each ball in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30-60 minutes.
Apple Filling:
3 Tbsp butter
3 Tbsp packed brown sugar
1/2 tsp cinnamon
2 large granny smith apples, peeled, cored, and diced (2 cups)
2 tsp cornstarch
2 Tbsp water
Heat butter in medium skillet over medium-low heat until melted. Add brown sugar, cinnamon, and apples and cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes, until apples begin to soften. Combine cornstarch and water in small bowl. Add to apple mixture and cook for 3 minutes, until sauce around apples thickens. Remove from heat and cool to room temperature.
Crumble:
2/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt
5 Tbsp cold butter, cubed
Combine flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, salt, and butter in food processor. Pulse until pea-sized crumbs form. Set aside.
To make tarts:
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Remove dough from refrigerator. Roll each ball into 1/8-inch thick circle and press into 3-inch tart pans, trimming excess dough from edges. Pierce the bottom of each tart with fork several times. Place 4-inch square of parchment paper on top of each tart and fill with pie weights or beans. Place tart pans on large baking sheet.
Bake tart shells for 15 minutes. Carefully remove pie weights or beans and parchment paper and bake an additional 5 minutes.
Place 1/4 cup apple pie filling in each tart and top with 3 Tbsp of the crumble topping. Bake for 12-15 minutes, until crumble is golden brown. Cool before serving.
