Apple Cheddar Country Tart

• 1 double crust pie crust
• 5 fuji apples, Granny Smith apples or 5 golden delicious apples, peeled, cored and thinly sliced
• 3/4 cup white sugar
• 2 tablespoons flour
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1/2 cup raisins (optional)
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1 dash nutmeg
• 1 dash salt (I used 1/4 1 dash 1/8 tsp accordingly)
• 1 cup grated sharp cheddar cheese
• 1/8 cup sugar, mixed with
• 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
2. On floured work surface, rool out pastry dough into a 16" round.
3. Fold dough in half and transfer to a lightly greased baking sheet. Set aside.
4. (note: I use prepurchased pie dough already in two rounds, so I simply lay one on the sheet and top with the second. You end up with a round tart this way).
5. In a large bowl, combine apples, sugar, flour, lemon, raisins, cinnamon,nutmeg and salt. Gently stir to blend.
6. Mound apple mixture in the middle of the dough, leaving two to four inches all around the edge.
7. Scatter cheddar cheese over mixture.
8. Fold edge over filling all the way around, pleating pastry as needed.
9. Lightly baste with water, then sprinkle sugar/cinnamon mix on top.
10. Bake tart in preheated oven until pastry is golden and apples are tender, about 30 to 35 minutes.
