Step 1

Preheat oven to 400F

Step 2

PREPARE TART: Spread softened butter on an 8 inch pie dish. Sprinkle brown sugar to cover the bottom. Arrange apples, overlapping, around the outer edge, then the inner edge, covering the entire bottom of the pie plate. Sprinkle 2 teaspoons flour over apples to help absorb the juices (and avoid a soggy crust). Sprinkle with cinnamon if desired.

Step 3

PREPARE CRUST: The crust will start on the top and end up on the bottom when tart is inverted onto a plate. Unfold dough or roll to 1/8 inch. Cut out round piece of dough to fit pie dish. (I lay inverted pie dish on top of dough and cut around it). You will have leftover dough. Don't fuss - you can trim it after. Lay dough on top of apples and tuck the edges downward all around inside edge of pie plate.

Step 4

BAKE AND SERVE: Bake tart for 23 minutes or until crispy and deep golden brown. Remove from oven. Invert onto a plate. Serve warm with ice cream or whipped cream.
