APPLE TART

Today I woke up feeling inspired. Suddenly I got this idea out of nowhere. I was gonna make an apple pie and I had the whole thing planned already. I was gonna search for a recipe online and I was gonna search for every single ingredient even if I had to get dressed and leave the house to do so.

I didn´t have some ingredients so I went to the market with my bike, enjoying the sunny day.

I got back home feeling excited about being able to do this new thing but most important, being able to feel excited about something other than staying in bed late on a Saturday morning.

So without further ado, here are some pictures of my little creation:


Hoy me levanté sintiéndome inspirada. De repente se me ocurrió hacer una tarta de manzana. Busqué la receta en internet y me aseguré de tener todos los ingredientes y si no los tenía no importaba, porque iba a hacer el sacrificio de vestirme y salir de mi casa para buscarlos.

No tenia algunos de los ingredientes, por lo cual fui al mercado en bicicleta, disfrutando el dia soleado.

Volvi sintiendome emocionada por poder hacer algo nuevo pero ademas porque iba a hacer algo distinto a quedarme en mi cama un Sabado por la mañana.

Ahora paso a mostrarles mi pequeña creacion:

Ingredients:
 
For the dough: 

125 g margarine or butter (room temperature, softened) 
Sugar 125 g 
8 g of vanilla sugar 
1 pinch of salt

2 teaspoons baking powder 
2 tablespoons milk

For the surface:

25 g butter
750 g of apples
 
1) Preheat oven to 180 º C.
2) Use a pie pan of about 25 cm in diameter and a little butter or oil to it´s surface and reserve.
3) Peel the apples, remove the heart and cut into quarters. ( I cut them as thin as I could)
4) For the dough, toss the softened butter in a bowl and gradually add sugar, vanilla sugar (I used vanilla extract), a pinch of salt and half a lemon juice and continue mixing.
5) Add eggs one by one and keep mixing. It is important to gradually add the eggs one by one, beating in between.
6) Before you add the flour, mix with 2 tablespoons of baking powder and then incorporate it into the mixture. Continue beating and add the 2 tablespoons of milk.
7) Fill the mold with the dough and smoothed with a spatula. Place the apples in a crown or top of the dough.
8) ENJOY EATING IT.
