  • Yield: 8

Ingredients

  • •125g brown rice flour
  • •50g chickpea flour
  • •50g ground almonds
  • •25g arrow-root
  • •2tbsp unrefined sugar
  • •125g cold butter (cubed)
  • •1 egg (beaten)
  • •10tbsp apple sauce
  • •2 firm apples (peeled and cored)
  • •2tbsp apricot jam

Instructions

  1. Place the rice and chickpea flour in a large bowl with the ground almonds, arrow-root, sugar and butter. Rub the butter in the flour with the fingers, until obtaining rough crumbs. Add the egg and shape into a ball. (Alternatively, place all ingredients in a food processor with a dough attachment and pulse until the dough comes together.) Wrap the ball in cling film and place in the fridge for 30min.
  2. Slice the apples finely.
  3. Preheat the oven to 180°C.
  4. When the dough is ready, place it between two sheets of baking paper and with a rolling pin, flatten it into a circle slightly bigger than your tart dish. Place the dough into the dish, pressing it against the sides, and remove the upper sheet of paper. Prick the bottom with a fork.
  5. Spread the apple sauce over the pastry and arrange the apple slices on top.
  6. Gently heat the apricot jam in a small saucepan, and when runny, spread over the apple slices with a brush.
  7. Place the tart in the oven for about 40min, until the pastry edges are golden. Leave to cool down before serving.
