This was such an easy and wonderful dessert! I It was a gorgeous presentation and so so good! For those who have problems with smoking, be sure to have a clean oven when you bake at high temps.

I loved it and had as much pleasure making it as eating it. This is a perfect food for watching "Eat - Pray - Love". Thank you.

I made the tart many times and after i serve it, people can't talk about anything else! I use less butter and less sugar than the the recipe ask for.

This is one of the best things I have ever eaten. I did have trouble with sugar burning on cookie sheet like other viewers have said I would have given it 5 stars.if it wasn't for that. I rolled up the sides of the dough a little, but I must have missed a spot because sure enough I saw butter and sugar leaking all over the cookie sheet. after about 5 min. I added cinnamon, and nutmeg to the sugar and sprinkled rasisns over it. I ate it with whipped cream and I was in heaven.

I didn't have any of the cooking issues that others had. I only baked 45min instead of 1 hour. I will not be making this again. I was disappointed because the amount of sugar and butter completely overwhelmed the apples. If you like your apple desserts a bit tart limit the sugar and only use tiny dots of butter for a cleaner taste of apples. I found the dough to be simple to make and easy to work with as long as it's cold.

It's like apple pie, but simpler. I might add some cinnamon next time I make it to punch up the flavor a bit. It's really quite good as-is, but we all felt like it could use a little something more. Also, because the crust loses that wonderful crunchy texture by the 2nd day, I think I would only make this if we had company coming. My family loved it!

The dough for this took some time and effort, but the recipe was easy enough to follow. The sauce is what REALLY makes this dessert! My husband and I were fighting over what was left in the pan. Overall, this was a wonderful dessert that will be eaten a lot in my house!!!

Everthing worked out well. I forgot to use the parchment paper and one part stuck to the pan. I had no smoking problems. But I didn't like the apricot taste. Im goign to try another flavor. Any suggestions?

This is my new favorite dessert! Since I'm usually too lazy to make and roll out dough, I used frozen puff pastry. I laid out one sheet, and used the second sheet to cut 1/2 inch strips to place around the edge to keep the sugar/butter from melting and dripping off onto the pan and burning (happened with my first attempt. If using the puff pastry, halve the filling ingredients and you'll have the perfect amount. I used Pink Lady apples, which are SO delicious. Moisten the edge of the bottom puff pastry sheet then lay the border on top of the moistened edge. To Teresa from a prior post, give the puff pastry with the "border" a try, and the burning/scorching should be alleviated . It worked for me! ENJOY and thanks for another great one, Ina!
