It’s hard to resist warm baked apple humming with the flavour of cinnamon. Such a delicious tart to have for afternoon tea with the kids, or shared with friends. The whole family can enjoy making these and coming up with pretty ways to present them.

Be Creative:

And get the kids involved.

We used a number of different shapes and sizes:

–       4 equal squares

–       The 4 square cut into 4 again for smaller bite size tart

–       Cookie cutter heart shape

–       Cut one of the ‘4 equal size squares’ in 2, filled with some mixture and rolled it up like a little parcel.

Nutrition Note: This yummy apple tart is best enjoyed as an occasional sweet treat rather than an everyday snack.
