You can make this apple tart with all kind of apples. The only thing you need to know is that the apples should not be overcooked. They must be soft on the outside and crisp on the inside.
The shortcrust pastry is soft and buttery, it melts in the mouth. It is the perfect base for any kind of tarts like strawberry tart, blueberry tart, chocolate tart… This is the only shortcrust pastry I make because it is simply the best. I could never use another recipe. And it also works if you want it gluten free, you just need to use GF flour. I have done it before and my GF friends liked it very much!
Bon appétit!
