How To Make A Granny Smith’s Golden Delicious Tart:

Granny Smith’s Golden Delicious Tart Recipe.

Using a circle of puff pastry, the apples are arranged haphazardly on top of a wonderful mixture of ground almonds, butter, sugar and egg for a sensational treat.

What makes this apple tart recipe special is the balance of sweet and tart apples, creating a depth of flavour you just can’t get from using a single variety.

Granny Smith apples add a bright, refreshing sharpness, while Golden Delicious slices melt into a naturally sweet, golden layer.

It’s the ideal dessert for family gatherings, weekend baking, or filling your home with that irresistible aroma of vanilla and warm pastry.

I’ll walk you through the ingredients, step-by-step instructions, and helpful tips to make your tart turn out beautifully every time.

If you’re looking for a reliable and delicious apple tart recipe, you’re in the right place. Let’s start baking!

Preparation: 20 minutes | Cooking: 25 minutes | Serves: 6-8

Granny Smith’s Golden Delicious Tart Recipe:

Ingredients:

• 500g pack ready-to-roll puff pastry (not ready rolled)
• A little plain flour
• 1 large egg, beaten
• 20g butter, softened
• 50g caster sugar
• 150g ground almonds
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 2 South African Granny Smith apples, cored and thinly sliced
• 1 South African Golden Delicious apples, cored and thinly sliced
• Juice of 1 lemon
• 20g toasted flaked almonds
• Crème fraiche or whipped double cream, to serve

Granny Smith’s Golden Delicious Tart Recipe Method:

Preheat the oven to 220°C, fan oven 200°C, Gas Mark 7.

1. Firstly, roll out the pastry on a lightly floured surface into a circle measuring roughly 35cm in diameter. 
2. Cut cleanly around the edges with a sharp knife. (Use an upturned dinner plate for a template). A clean-cut edge helps the puff pastry to rise well. Lift the pastry onto a baking sheet lined with baking paper, then score a border about 1cm from the edge, without cutting right through.
3. Reserve about 1 tbsp of the beaten egg, then mix the remainder with the butter, sugar, ground almonds and vanilla extract. Spread evenly over the pastry, avoiding the border.
4. Toss the apple slices in the lemon juice, then scatter them randomly over the surface of the tart, avoiding the border. 
5. Brush the border with the reserved beaten egg. 
6. Bake the tart for 20-25 minutes, until the pastry is risen and golden brown.
7. Scatter the flaked almonds over the tart and serve whilst warm, with crème fraiche or whipped double cream.

Cook’s Tip: Another time, use a combination of South African apples and pears.
