Apple Crostata With Spiced Caramel Sauce Recipes

APPLE CROSTATA WITH CARAMEL SAUCE

Steps:

• Start by making the dough recipe that is linked above, then pop it in the fridge while you make the apple filling. Or if you are using store bought pie crust, skip this step.
• Preheat the oven to 375° and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a reusable silpat.
• To make the apple filling peel, core and cut your apples into 1/2 inch chunks. In a large bowl toss the apples with 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice. Now mix in the brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla and kosher salt. Stir to coat the apples with the mixture.
• On a lightly floured surface roll out your pastry dough/pie crust to about a 12 inch round. This does not have to look perfect! A crostata is very rustic.
• Transfer the crust to your parchment lined baking sheet.
• Pour the apple filling into the center of the crust, leaving about 1 inch around the edge. Fold that edge over the apple filling.
• Optionally - you can brush the crust with an egg wash to make a more golden crust.
• Pop the crostata into the preheated oven and bake for 50 minutes.
• While the apple crostata cooks make the caramel filling below.
• Let the apple crostata cool for at least 10 minutes and then serve in slices topped with caramel drizzle and ice cream!

BROWN BUTTER APPLE CROSTATA WITH APPLE CIDER CARAMEL SAUCE

Steps:

• For the crust: Combine the flour, butter and salt in a food processor, and pulse until the mixture looks like Parmesan. Drizzle in half the ice water and pulse until the mixture forms a rough ball, adding the remaining water if needed. Remove and form the dough into a disk, and then wrap in plastic and refrigerate at least 1 hour.
• For the filling: Melt the butter in a small saucepan and add the vanilla bean. Cook until the butter starts to brown and begins to smell like hazelnuts, and then remove the vanilla bean pod and transfer the butter to the bowl of a stand mixer equipped with a paddle. Add the sugar and beat on medium speed. Gradually add the flour. Once the flour has been incorporated, add the eggs one at a time.
• For the apples: Melt the butter in a large saute pan over medium heat. Cook the raisins, sugar and apples until the apples begin to soften, 6 to7 minutes. Remove from the heat and pour in the brandy, then return to the fire and flambe, letting the alcohol burn off.
• For assembly: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Remove the dough from the fridge 15 minutes before using, allowing it to soften and come to room temperature. Dust a clean work surface with flour. Roll the dough 1/8-inch-thick and lay it into the tart molds with lots of overhang on the sides. Schmear half the filling into the bottom of the tart pans and top with the apples. Fold the extra dough over the top of the apples, and then brush the dough with the egg wash. Bake until the tops are golden brown and slightly crispy, about 25 minutes. Cool.
• Loosen the edges of the tart from the mold using a sharp paring knife. Gently remove the tart mold before plating. Serve with the Cinnamon Mascarpone and Apple Cider Caramel Sauce.
• Mix the mascarpone, sugar and cinnamon in a bowl until well incorporated. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• Cook the apple cider and lemon juice in a large heavy-bottomed saute pan over medium heat until reduced to a syrupy consistency, about 10 minutes. Stir in the heavy cream and bring back to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and whisk in the butter, 2 pats at a time, allowing the butter to melt before adding more. Serve warm.
