Dutch Apple Tart

Our families version of a Dutch classic...
 


Dutch Apple Tart

1 c. butter (or margarine)
2 c. flour
1 c. sugar
1 egg, beaten (saving a little to brush on top)
sliced apples
1/2 c. sugar
1 Tbsp. flour
1 tsp. lemon juice
1 tsp. cinnamon

Combine butter, flour, sugar, and egg (remembering to save a little for the top), mix till it just starts to come together. Save 1/4 for the lattice and press the rest into the bottom of a 9" springform pan going 1" up the sides. Fill with sliced apples, topping with remaining ingredients. Roll out remaining dough and make a lattice for the top (Cut long thin slices and lay in lattice pattern). Brush with extra egg. Bake at 350 for 50 minutes, turn off oven and let cool in oven (the secret to a softer crust, thanks mom:)).
