Recipes

Marjoram Apple Tart

Crust:
2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ cup Crisco
½ cup ice water

Filling:
6-8 firm apples
½ cup sugar
1 teaspoon finely chopped marjoram leaves

Crumbs:
½ stick butter
1 cup flour
½ teaspoon cinnamon
¼ cup brown sugar

Preheat oven to 350°F

For crust, mix flour, baking powder and Crisco with a pastry blade. Slowly add water until it adheres and forms a ball. On a floured surface, roll in a perfect round until it will fit the pie pan.

Sprinkle flour on bottom of crust and lay in apples (slices on the bottom, halves and quarters on top). Sprinkle apples with sugar and marjoram leaves. Top with crumbs and sprinkle with cinnamon.

Bake 50-60 minutes or until soft.
