Gluten Free Apple Tart Made with Puff Pastry

Ingredients:

• 1/2 recipe Gluten Free Puff Pastry
• OR
• 1 recipe Gluten Free Dairy Free Puff Pastry
• 4 medium apples, peeled and very thinly sliced
• Juice of 1 lemon
• 1 egg, beaten
• Orange-colored gluten-free jam (optional)

Instructions:

1. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. Roll puff pastry out to 1/8-inch thick.
3. Using a salad plate as a guide, cut dough into four rounds.
4. Transfer two rounds to each prepared baking sheet, cover and refrigerate at least 30 minutes.
5. Preheat oven to 400°F with one rack on the top shelf and another on the bottom.
6. Layer apple slices over the pastry dough leaving a 1/3-inch border on the edges.
7. Brush apples with lemon juice.
8. Sprinkle each tart with 1 - 2 teaspoons sugar.
9. Brush edges of dough with beaten eggs.
10. Bake tarts on upper and lower shelves of oven at the same time, switching shelves halfway through. Bake until pastry puffs up, edges become golden around the edges, and apples soften, 20 - 25 minutes.
11. If desired, brush top with your favorite orange colored jam such as peach, apricot, or marmalade.
12. Once baked, transfer tarts to wire racks to cool for about 10 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature topped with French Vanilla Ice Cream, Gluten Free Pastry Cream, or Baked Custard. Freeze baked leftovers tightly wrapped and sealed.
