Try this apple crostata recipe for the simplest apple pie ever. There’s no blind-baking or decorating the edge of a crust. And best of all, no worrying about how the material of your pie plate might affect baking times. This is apple crostata recipe is surrounded by a circle of dough with the edges folded over to keep the filling in place. As basic as that sounds, the result is a luscious dessert with caramel and cinnamon sugar that is irresistible.<\/p>\n
Does this sound an awful lot like an apple galette? That’s because it pretty much is an apple galette; a crostata is just a galette with an Italian name instead of a French one. The techniques are the same and if you’ve made galettes before this recipe will be a cinch.<\/p>\n
Mix the flour, sugar and salt in a large bowl. Cut the butter into the flour and combine until the flour looks crumbly. Next, slowly add water and the vanilla extract, tossing the dough with a fork to combine everything. Keep tossing the dough until it forms a ball. Cover the bowl and place it in the refrigerator; chill the dough for about 30 minutes. The dough should be easier to handle once that time is up.<\/p>\n Preheat your oven to 400\u00b0F. Lightly flour your rolling surface and roll out the dough into a circle that’s 10 inches in diameter. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and transfer the dough to the parchment. Mix the apples, sugar and flour for the filling and place spoonfuls of the filling over the dough. Cover most of the dough, leaving a 2-inch margin of uncovered dough all around the filling. Fold this dough up and over the filling, but leave the center of the crostata uncovered. Mix the sugar and cinnamon and sprinkle it all over the exposed filling; mix the egg with water and brush the egg wash around the top of the crust.<\/p>\n Bake the crostata for 25 to 30 minutes, until the crust has turned golden-brown and the filling is bubbling. Slide the parchment and crostata off the pan and onto a wire rack. Drizzle the warmed caramel topping over the crostata. You can serve this warm or at room temperature.<\/p>\n Place any leftover apple crostata in an airtight container and store it in the refrigerator for up to four days.<\/p>\n If the crostata has a simple apple and spices filling it can be frozen. (Some crostatas have additional fillings like cream and don’t freeze well.) The caramel sauce may have a thicker consistency when thawing, but the baked crostata should last for about three months when wrapped properly. Slice the remaining crostata into servings and place each on a flat baking tray. Freeze those for about 30 minutes to harden the caramel sauce. Wrap each slice in foil and store the packets in a freezer-safe bag or container. Let the slices thaw in the refrigerator.<\/p>\n If you want the crostata to taste like the one the recipe is based on (which was a contest winner by the way), then yes, you would need to use tart apples like Granny Smith. But if the tartness doesn’t appeal to you or you’ve got a bunch of apples that you need to use up that aren’t tart then use those. Try to stick with apple varieties that hold their shape and texture well after baking, like Golden Delicious. Here’s a list of apple varieties<\/a> and the uses they’re best suited for.<\/p>\n The juice in the apples (even tart ones) can seep into the crust as the crostata bakes, resulting in a soggy mess underneath that lovely apple filling. Be sure you’ve drained away any juice that’s sitting around the apple slices after you cut them and brush the inside surface of the crust with beaten egg white before adding the filling. Believe it or not, you can also prevent soggy crusts by using a pizza stone<\/a> in place of a baking pan. Take a look at these tips<\/a> if you’re interested in learning more about how to prevent soggy crostata an pie crusts.<\/p>\n If you mix warm, softened butter with flour and sugar, the ingredients will combine to form a crumbly dough that’s difficult to roll out. This texture is ideal for recipes where the dough is pressed into a pan, such as shortbread. However, if you’re aiming for a flaky dough that holds together well and can be rolled out, you’ll want to use cold butter. Although the dough might initially appear pebble-like because the cold butter doesn\u2019t fully incorporate, handling and rolling the dough will flatten the butter pieces. During baking, these flattened butter bits create air pockets, resulting in a flaky texture that easily separates when pulled apart or cut with a fork\u2014perfect for a crostata. And if you ever find yourself needing to soften cold butter for a recipe that requires warm butter, here\u2019s a quick way to do it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This apple crostata recipe has firm apple slices covered with cinnamon sugar and a drizzle of caramel topping, resting in a simple dough circle.

Make sure to brush your crust liberally with the egg wash to prevent cracking, and especially at the folds to prevent unfolding. This will also help give the tart its beautiful golden color.
