Amsterdam Appeltaart

• For the tart crust
• 1 stick salted butter, melted
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 3/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 1 cup flour
• For the apple filling
• 1 cup best-quality apple butter (I made my own and it's spiced with allspice, cinnamon and cloves)
• 5-6 Ginger Gold apples, half of them peeled, all cored and cut into 1/2" cubes
• 1 Macintosh apple, cored and cut into 1/2" cubes
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 2 teaspoons best-quality cinnamon
• 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

1. Preheat your oven to 350.
2. In a medium mixing bowl, combine all crust ingredients and stir until combined. Turn out into a round tart pan with a removable bottom and press into the bottom and up the sides. Cook for 8 minutes. Cool about 15 minutes.
3. In a large mixing bowl, combine everything BUT the apple butter. Toss well so that the apple cubes are coated fairly evenly with the sugar, cinnamon and lemon juice.
4. Slather the apple butter over the bottom of the tart crust. Then pour your apple cube mixture over that. It should be a huge mound.rnPut the tart on a baking sheet, and bake for 30 or a bit more minutes.rnThis is wonderful plain but I'm sure it'd also be good with some ice cream, whipped cream or even a little caramel.
