Make the Pastry
In a large bowl, mix the flour, sugar, and salt. Add the chilled butter and mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in ice water, a tablespoon at a time, until the dough comes together. Form into a disk, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Assemble the Tart

Bake the Tart
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes or until the apples are tender and the crust is golden brown. Allow to cool slightly before serving.
