List of Ingredients
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- 3 TBSP+1 tsp sugar
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp baking powder
- 3 TBSP sold unsalted butter, cut into small dice
- 1 TBSP canola oil
- 1 TBSP light sour cream
- 1 TBSP low-fat cottage cheese, preferably unsalted
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon
- 2 medium firm apples, peeled and sliced into 1/4 thick wedges.
Instructions
- To make crust, pulse flour,salt,1 tsp of sugar, and baking powder in food processor. Add the butter and process until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the oil, sour cream.and cottage cheese; process until mixture just comes together, about 30 seconds. With lightly floured hands (dough will be sticky), gather the dough together and shape it into a flattened disk.Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until chilled through, at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place a 12 inch square sheet of foil on a work surface. Turn out the dough onto the foil and roll out to a 12 inch circle, rotating dough often to make sure it's even. Gently pull up the edges of the dough all around to loosen it slightly from the foil. Pick up the of the foil and transfer the dough to a baking sheet. Remove the foil.
- Combine the remaining 3 Tbsp sugar and the cinnamon together in a small bowl and sprinkle 1 TBSP over the dough.
- Arrange the apple slices in overlapping concentric rings around the dough, leaving a 1 inch border on the outside ring. Sprinkle evenly with remaining cinnamon mixture. Fold up the border of the dough over the edge of the apples, pressing gently to seal.
- Bake until the crust begins to turn golden around the edges, 20 minutes; reduce the heat to 350 degrees and continue baking until the apples are tender and the crust is lightly browned,15-20 minutes more. Serve warm
Final Comments
can make the crust up to four days ahead; just refrigerate it. Can freeze it in plastic zip bag up to two months.
