Ingredients for Apple Tart With Orange Marsala Glaze

  • Pie Crust
  • Golden Delicious Apples
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Unsalted Butter
  • Orange Marmalade
  • Sweet Marsala Wine

How to Make Apple Tart With Orange Marsala Glaze

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Spray an 11-inch tart pan with a removable bottom with cooking spray.
  3. On a lightly floured surface, roll out one pie crust into a 13-inch round. Gently place the dough into the prepared tart pan.
  4. Trim the excess dough, leaving a slight overhang to create a neat edge.
  5. Arrange the apple slices in three concentric circles over the dough, starting from the outside and working inwards, ensuring the apples are close together.
  6. In a small bowl, combine the granulated sugar and salt.
  7. Evenly sprinkle the sugar mixture over the arranged apples.
  8. Dot the apples with the small pieces of butter.
  9. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the apples are tender and golden brown, and the crust is cooked through.
  10. Let the tart cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
  11. In a small saucepan, gently combine the orange marmalade and Marsala wine over low heat. Stir until the marmalade is melted and smooth, creating a glaze.
  12. Brush the warm orange Marsala glaze evenly over the cooled apple tart.
  13. Serve and enjoy! Consider adding a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a decadent treat.
