Serves 8
Be sure to read the recipe notes.
Ingredients
THE CRUST
- 1 ⅓ cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cubed, chilled
- 1/2 teaspoon pink salt
- 4 tablespoons ice water
- 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
THE FILLING
- 3 Pink Pearl Apples
- *Substitute: Honey Crisp Apples
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 16 ounces Mascarpone Cheese
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon heavy whipping cream
- 6 tablespoons light brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons allspice
Instructions
Make The Crust
In a large bowl, combine the flour and salt. Cut in the butter into the flour mixture by snapping with clean fingers or using a pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the vinegar and ice water and stir until the dough just comes together. Pat into a flat rectangle about an inch thick, cover in plastic wrap and chill until cold.
The Pink Pearl Apples
Peel and core the apple. Slice in half. Lay each side flat and slice into thin half moon pieces. Add the apples to a bowl and toss with the lemon juice. Repeat with second and third apples. Set aside.
Pink Pearl Apple Tart Assembly
Preheat oven to 400°F.
Mix together the light brown sugar and the allspice and set aside.
In the bowl add the mascarpone cheese, honey, and whipping cream. Stir until smooth. Set aside.
On a lightly floured work surface, roll out the chilled dough into a 1/4 inch thick square larger than the tart pan. Lay the dough across the pan and press off edges. Spread the Mascarpone Honey Cream carefully onto the crust. Place the apple slices over the filling shingling the slices one onto the other. Sprinkle with the sugar/allspice mixture.
Bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until apples are soft with just browned edges and crust is light golden brown.
Serve hot with a dollop of whipped cream.

Sparkle Crush: Pink Pearl Apples
This makes a delicious soup. The pictures above are clearly taken pre baking. There is zero chance it looked like this after baking.
HELLO!
Thank you for taking time to comment. I appreciate your idea to use these apples in soup. As for the color of the apples being misrepresented in the photos, I encourage you to take a closer look at the after photo. The edges of the apples are browned in the photograph after being baked. I am not certain what color they turn in the soup you make with them, but this is the “Pretty To Eat Color” they turn when baked in this apple tart. Respectfully, Gwyn
