Apple Crumb Tart with Maple Ice Milk


This is a SparkPeople.com Recipe (what's this)

Introduction

We like to use whole wheat pastry flour because it adds color and texture, but all-purpose flour also works. We like to use whole wheat pastry flour because it adds color and texture, but all-purpose flour also works.

Ingredients

    Crust:1/2 cup whole wheat pastry flour1/2 cup all-purpose flour2 teaspoons brown sugar1/2 teaspoon baking powder1/8 teaspoon sea salt1/4 cup chilled butter, cut into small pieces5 tablespoons ice waterCooking sprayFilling:6 cups sliced peeled Granny Smith apple (about 1 1/2 pounds)1 tablespoon cornstarch2 tablespoons brown sugar2 tablespoons maple syrup1 teaspoon lemon juice1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamonTopping:1/4 cup whole wheat pastry flour1/3 cup all-purpose flour3 tablespoons brown sugar1/4 teaspoon baking powderDash of sea salt2 tablespoons butter, meltedMaple Ice Milk

Directions

Preheat oven to 375°.

To prepare crust, lightly spoon 1/2 cup whole wheat pastry flour and 1/2 cup all-purpose flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Combine flours and next 3 ingredients (through 1/8 teaspoon salt) in a bowl; cut in butter with a pastry blender or 2 knives until mixture resembles coarse meal. Sprinkle surface with ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, tossing with a fork until moist and crumbly (do not form a ball). Press mixture gently into a 4-inch circle on plastic wrap. Cover and chill 5 minutes in freezer. Slightly overlap 2 sheets plastic wrap on a slightly damp surface. Unwrap and place chilled dough on plastic wrap. Cover dough with 2 additional sheets of overlapping plastic wrap. Roll dough, still covered, into a 10-inch circle (A). Place dough in freezer 5 minutes or until plastic wrap can be easily removed. Remove top sheets plastic wrap; fit dough, plastic wrap side up, into a 9-inch round removable-bottom tart pan coated with cooking spray. Remove remaining plastic wrap (B). Fold edges under; flute. Cover and refrigerate.

To prepare filling, place apple in a large bowl. Sprinkle with cornstarch; toss well to coat. Stir in brown sugar and next 3 ingredients (through cinnamon).

To prepare topping, lightly spoon 1/4 cup whole wheat pastry flour and 1/3 cup all-purpose flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Combine flours, 3 tablespoons sugar, baking powder, and dash of salt; drizzle with melted butter. Toss with a fork just until combined (mixture will be lumpy).

Spread apple mixture in crust; sprinkle evenly with topping. Bake at 375° for 50 minutes or until fruit bubbles and topping is golden brown. Cool in pan to room temperature on wire rack.

  • It looks really tasty and the whole wheat pastry crust looks enticing. (Good instructions for making it too, little details matter!) It's nice to see some real cooking on this site! What brand of maple ice milk do you use? (Ice milk = low fat ice cream) - 1/9/08

  • From Scratch Desserts take time and alot of ingredients. I wasn't surprised to see this many ingredients for a dessert that sounds this good. It takes me 3 hours to make my 'famous Italian Cream cake' this by comparison looks easy. But what is maple ice milk? I expected to see a recipe for that too? - 1/9/08

  • This sounds delicious!! May look like a lot of work, but if you read through the recipie it is actually not too bad! I'm going to try this next weekend. - 1/6/08

  • The ingredient list looks long, but many ingredients are being repeated. I went with an iced soy milk, and used stevia as a sugar substitute. Quite Good, the family enjoyed it! - 1/6/08

  • Good Lord! Too many ingredients?! Searching for them?! Very typical ingredients, all staples. Although a dough hook & good stand mixer would be easier. Haven't made it yet but sounds good & while not super-easy, easy enough. That's how you make pies! Maple ice milk? That's a bit unique, tho. - 1/6/08

  • This sounds delicious and I might make it if I were going somewhere that I needed to bring a dish. I have to agree with a few others...making this and leaving it in my house would be much more likely to be a problem for me (damage control - don't make it and avoid temptation) - 1/5/08

  • Far, far, far too many ingredients for me to even consider making this...forget about it. I can make a box of No-Pudge brownies with yogurt in less than 35 minutes and it's only 100 calories and it's just as all natural is all those ingredients above! - 1/5/08

  • Leslie56, from what I can gather, we only get points for one recipe per day. If we look at more than that, we don't get any points ( we "earned" them from the first recipe.) I think that's a shame, but seems to be the way it goes. Also, if we can't get to e-mail daily, don't get points for others - 1/5/08

  • I think we must have been alot thinner when we had to make all this stuff ourselves. I would definitely try this pie and would probably substitute low fat ice cream. I make crumb toppings cause they are less fat and cals then an additional crust and I like them better. - 1/5/08

  • How do I keep getting points earned, when I've never seen, some of these recipes before?? - 1/5/08

  • This recipe sounds delicious and I want to make it, but what the heck is Maple Ice Milk and where do I get it? Other than that, it sounds easy enough. - 1/5/08

  • I LOVE to bake and cook. Lots of ingredients don't scare me, and I, too, substituted with nonfat/sugar free ice cream, Splenda and sugar free syrup.

    This pie was DELICIOUS. YUM. I especially enjoyed the Maple Ice Milk. It was a surprising addition to a relatively traditional pie. - 1/5/08

  • Making anything, especially baking, from scratch always has several ingredients. When looking at the list, it's not bad, really! I just know I'd eat most of it, so I have to work on damage control and skip it. But it sounds yummy! I'd forgotten about Ice Milk! Ahh memories! - 1/5/08

    Was this review helpful?   Yes  No
  • "Lots" of ingredients does not mean this is difficult. A good, old apple pie can hit the spot sometimes! I might skip the toppings except for company. Easy enough to make your own ice milk whilst you're at it, too, though I'd go soy. - 1/5/08

  • I think you guys are making this too hard! Simply substitute a low fat/sugar ice cream instead. I'd also substitute Splenda for the sugars and use sugar free maple syrup. Other than that, it's no more difficult than a pie. My husband is diabetic and loves fruit cobblers. I will try this for him. - 1/5/08

  • A awful lot of work and where in the heck would a person get Maple Ice Milk or any kind of Ice Milk. I haven't seen Ice Milk in any stores I've shopped in for maybe 30 years. - 1/5/08

    Was this review helpful?   Yes  No
  • I agree, way too many ingrediants to search for, prep time and actual cook time for me to even consider this recipe ... sorry. - 1/5/08

    Was this review helpful?   Yes  No
  • Too many ingredients to consider.
    I very much prefer easier recipes as I have no time to locate, organize and prepare this many ingredients - 1/5/08
