Scrumptious Mini-tarts
With Apples and a Streusel Topping

This Apple Tart Recipe, (see the pictures!), makes scrumptious tarts with fruit that are easy and quick!

You and your family will ♥love♥ these fabulous tarts!

This recipe was given to me by my good friend Teresa V. She made it for a shared snack at work one evening, and we all insisted on the recipe!

It may appear that this is a recipe that takes a lot of effort, but it really is a very simple recipe to make!

1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup, plus 3 tbsp. all-purpose flour
1/4 cup walnuts (or pecans)

FOR THE SHELLS

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup butter, softened
1 egg
3 - 4 apples
1 tbsp. sugar/cinnamon mixture

Add the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt and continue to mix till well combined. Knead into a large "ball" with your hands.

Make about 1 1/2" small "balls", and flatten with your fingers into a disc shape (see the pictures), and fit discs into the cups of a greased, (or use a "non-stick"), muffin baking pan (see the pictures).

Peel, core, and slice the apples, and then cut the apple slices into small chunks (pieces), into the tart shells.

Sprinkle the sugar/cinnamon mixture on top of the apples (see the pictures).

Sprinkle the topping mixture over the apples.

Bake at 350° F for about 15 minutes or until done. Edges will begin to turn golden in colour.

Makes about 15 - 18 medium/large tarts.

Allow tarts to cool in the baking pan for about 20 minutes, and then remove them, using a bread and butter knife around the edges.

Store at room temperature. 

Note - As you can see from the photos above, I also made "mini" apple tarts using this apple tart recipe.
