One weekend we went a little crazy buying apples, and couldn't figure out any more dishes to possible add apples to. When my husband asked for an apple pie, I decided to be a little less formal and whip up this apple tart recipe. You can't go wrong with any recipe that is "free form" technique. The great thing about tarts, you can use up any left over fruit. But the crust is to die for! My secret ingredient to the most buttery and flaky crust is butter flavored shortening. Trust me, once you try it, you'll never go back to regular stick butter. Enjoy!

I had tried apple tart when I was on a vacation with my mom. It was a good and sunny day to try some new foods or desserts that we haven't tried yet before. And it was a good thing that the place that we have chosen to have our vacation with is a place known for apples. I did really ask my mom to make an apple tart as well once we get home because I have to say that I did fall in love when I ate it.
