2. Prepare the Filling:
- Peel and dice the apples into small cubes.
- In a large bowl, mix the apples with the raisins, sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice.
3. Assemble the Tart:
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
- Roll out the chilled dough on a floured surface and carefully place it in a tart tin, trimming the edges as needed.
- Pour the apple and raisin filling over the dough, spreading it evenly.
4. Bake:
- Bake the tart in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the filling is bubbling.
5. Serve:
- Allow the tart to cool slightly before serving.
- Optional: Sprinkle with icing sugar for a decorative finish.
🌟 Tips for the Perfect Tart:
- Extra texture: Add a handful of chopped nuts, such as walnuts or hazelnuts, to the filling for a crunchy surprise.
- Adjust sweetness: Modify the sugar according to your taste or the sweetness of the apples.
- Thicker filling: If the filling appears too liquid, mix in a teaspoon of cornstarch before assembling the tart.
- Nutty dough: For a richer crust, substitute a portion of the flour with ground almonds.
