Ingredients
Creme Brulee Topping
Preparation
1. Make the Tart Crust
In a large bowl, combine the flour and powdered sugar. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the egg yolk and vanilla extract until the dough comes together. Press the dough into a tart pan and chill for 30 minutes.
2. Pre-bake the Crust
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Prick the bottom of the chilled tart crust with a fork and bake for 15-20 minutes until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.
3. Prepare the Apple Filling
In a medium bowl, toss the diced apples with sugar, cinnamon, lemon juice, and cornstarch. Spread the apple mixture evenly over the cooled tart crust.
4. Make the Creme Brulee Filling
In a saucepan, heat the heavy cream and scraped vanilla bean over medium heat until just simmering. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and granulated sugar until pale. Gradually pour the hot cream into the egg mixture while whisking continuously. Strain the mixture into a bowl.
5. Assemble and Bake
Pour the creme brulee filling over the apples in the tart. Bake at 325°F (160°C) for 30-35 minutes until set. Remove from the oven and let cool.
6. Caramelize the Sugar
Sprinkle the sugar for caramelizing evenly over the cooled tart. Use a kitchen torch to caramelize the sugar until golden brown. Let it cool slightly before serving.
