How to Make Grand Marnier Apple Tarte

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt, and cold butter. Use a pastry blender or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Add the ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough just comes together. Do not overmix.
  4. Form the dough into a disc, wrap it in plastic wrap, and chill for at least 30 minutes.
  5. While the dough chills, peel, core, and thinly slice the apples. In a separate bowl, toss the apples with the Grand Marnier, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  6. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled dough into a 12-inch circle. Carefully transfer the dough to a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom.
  7. Trim and crimp the edges of the dough.
  8. Spread the apple mixture evenly over the dough.
  9. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the apples are tender.
  10. Let the tarte cool completely on a wire rack before serving. Dust with powdered sugar before serving (optional).
