Swiss Apple Tart Recipe

Quade Maldonado

Report

This Swiss Apple Tart is not your usual Apple Cinnamon Tart. There’s a secret layer of crushed almonds at the bottom of the buttery pie crust and an ultra creamy, luscious vanilla custard is poured over the sliced apples before baking. The result is an elegant fall dessert perfect for the holidays!

Notes

I picked Gala apples today because I love that flavor and texture the most. Here's an amazing GUIDE to the different types of apples, how each tastes and what best way to use it!
Feel free to use hazelnuts instead of almonds for the base.
As a shortcut, you can use store-bought pie crust or puff pastry to make this recipe.
