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"!].

  • 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!
