Instructions

Using a stand mixer with a paddle attachment, mix the flour, salt, and butter on low speed for 2 minutes. Slowly add ice water until the dough forms a ball.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured work surface and knead it 2 or 3 times, just until it comes together. Pat the dough into a disk. On the lightly floured work surface, roll out the dough into a 16- to 17-inch (450g to 480g) round, about 1/4 inch (5mm) thick.
Line a large, unrimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Roll the dough around the rolling pin and then unroll it onto the prepared baking sheet.
In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of sugar with the remaining 1 tablespoon of flour and sprinkle it over the dough. Arrange the apple slices on top in overlapping concentric circles, leaving about 3 inches (7 cm) of the edge. Fold the dough over the apples in a free-form fashion.
Brush the apples with melted butter and sprinkle them with the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons of sugar. Refrigerate the unbaked tart until slightly chilled, about 10 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 400°F (207°C). Bake the apple tart in the center of the oven for 1 hour, or until the apples are tender and golden, and the crust is deep golden and cooked through. Brush the apples with melted preserves. Slide the parchment onto a wire rack and let the tart cool slightly before serving.

Notes

The baked tart can be stored overnight at room temperature. Reheat in a 325° oven before serving.
