French Apple TartThis light and delicious apple pastry is in the Alsace-Lorraine style.If you like Trader Joe's carmelized onion, ham, and gruyere tart, you'll like this as well. It's the same style tart in a sweet version, instead of savory. Paper thin pastry is coated with a thin cream custard and then a single layer of shaved granny smith apples. You're instructed to bake this directly on the oven rack for 11 minutes, and then, sprinkle with an included packet of cinnamon sugar. I found the goo bubbled up and over into my toaster oven, however, so you may wish to use a cookie sheet. The tart is paper thin, crispy, and light in both texture and calories. Quite good, even for this gal, who isn't a big fan of apple pie, apple strudel, or any apple desserts, frankly. Would be delicious with both ice cream and whipped cream. I could even see throwing a few cranberries or blueberries across the top. One tart (about the size of a pizza): $3.99. Serving size is 1/4 of the tart (yahoo!). 140 calories 6 grams of fat 20 grams of carbs 2 grams of protein Submitted on 04/27/2007 by KJF Number of people who have "favored" this: 0 Read all 7 reviews below -OR-Add your own reviewReviews (7)

I really like the taste of this tart but it is not much food for the money. There is probably less than one apple on it.

Paper thin crust, topped with sweet cream, slices of fresh, tart Granny Smith apples and sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar - OH MY GOD, it is absolutely AMAZING. I know now we'll have one in our freezer at all times! :)

Hi, we put a little bit of thinly sliced prosciutto on it before baking then not so much sugar at the end.
It makes a nice sweet/tart/savory/salty combination byHambone, May 16, 2007
I really like the Alsace tart but this? No way. It's doughy and gummy and too sweet. And on top of all that it's too expensive.

3 WW Points for 1/4 piece.
This completely fell apart when I removed it from the oven (says to bake directly on the rack). It was a big mess. I managed to salvage bits and pieces and served it with ice cream. It was good, but I don't know if I'll go through the trouble again.

This is a must have for a well stocked freezer, just waiting for guests to arrive unannounced. It cooks up in no time and the quality and flavor is great. The only problem with keeping it on hand is that it is hugely tempting to eat alone.
