Delicious apple tart recipe and perfect with afternoon tea or coffee. I used the apricot glaze and cinnamon-sugar coated nuts. This even tasted better the next day when all the flavors blended and mellowed.Use the "international conversion chart" I posted a while back; for conversion help.

How to make it
- Make dough:
- combine flour, salt, sugar

- Blend in egg and vanilla to make a dough ( use a fork to combine very well - it will stick together )
- Cover and let rest 30 minutes in the refrigerator or cool place to firm up dough for easier handling
- Roll dough out dough on a floured surface to fit a well buttered round tart pan ( 24-26 cm ) with removable bottom
- Note: I rolled the dough between sheets of floured wax paper, was easier that way for me to do
- Place and press dough into pan and up sides
- Preheat oven to 400F
- Meanwhile peel and slice apples
- Place apple slices in a concentric pattern to cover the dough , filling in all spaces as best as possible
- Sprinkle apples with a little fresh lemon juice and some chopped candied nuts if desired

- Meanwhile heat the marmalade with the juice or liquer and stir smooth
- Remove cake from oven, and pour on evenly the glaze
