    12. 1 tablespoon butter (optional)

Directions

  1. Pastry.

  5. Do not over-mix.
  6. Pat into a disk, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate 15 minutes.

  11. Stir together the sugar, flour, and cinnamon in a bowl.
  12. Toss in the apples to coat, and dump onto the pastry.
  13. Dot with the butter.
  14. Bring the edges of the pastry up over so they lay in, rough-edged, on the apples. They won’t cover the apples completely.
  15. Bake until the crust is crisp and golden and the apples soft to a fork and caramelized, 40 to 45 minutes.
