Step by step recipe


Stage 1 - 5 min.
Tarte Jurassienne
Line a 10 inch 926 cm) tart tin or dish with the sweetcrust pastry.

Prick the base all over with a fork, then set aside in the fridge.

Stage 2 - 10 min.
Tarte Jurassienne
Peel 6 apples, cut into quarters, remove the core and slice through again.

Sprinkle the apple slices with 2 tablespoons lemon juice.

Stage 3 - 3 min.
Tarte Jurassienne
Melt 50 g clarified butter in a large frying pan on high heat. When good and hot, add the apple slices.

Stage 4 - 10 min.
Tarte Jurassienne
Sauté until lightly brwoned on both sides. There is no need to sweeten them.

Stage 5 - 5 min.
Tarte Jurassienne
When the apples are browned, pour 100 ml Jura Macvin over and leave to reduce.

Leave to cool.

Stage 6 - 4 min.
Tarte Jurassienne
Preheat the oven to 390°F (200°C).

Spread an even layer of 300 g rich hazelnut buttercream in the bottom of the pastry case.

Stage 7 - 5 min.
Tarte Jurassienne
Arrange the sautéed apple slices in a double rosette.

Stage 8 - 30 min.
Tarte Jurassienne
Bake for about 30 minutes.

Stage 9 - 5 min.
Tarte Jurassienne
Leave to cool on a wire rack. If possible, glaze the top, using a brush.
Remarks
You will notice that in stage 4 no sugar is added to the apples. There reall is no need, as the Macvin du Jura is already plenty sweet enough, as is the hazelnut buttercream filling.

[Translator's note: I chose to keep the French name, but I was so tempted to call this "Jurassic Tart"!].
Keeping: 1 or 2 days in the fridge, covered with plastic film.

  • Hi,
    You could use something not to high in alcohol and sweet. I guess you are out of France, but if you have access to liquor like Muscat, Banyuls, Porto or Marsala, it will be good second choice.
    Of course, it will be better with Macvin!
