This is a recipe that was given to my mom when we lived in France during my childhood. It holds all sorts of sweet goodness and memories.

Steps
Mix all the dry ingredients for the crust in a bowl. Add the cubes of butter and the egg and use a fork to cut it into the flour mixture. Put it into a baking dish and spread it out with your hands so that it is smooth and even. I like to use a flat quiche dish.
Layer the sliced apples all around in the shape of a flower.
Mix all the ingredients for the topping and pour over the apples evenly.
Bake at 350°F for 45 minutes or until set and browned.

Kevis on 2021-11-27 (5 stars): My gluten free version using Bob's Red Mill 1:1 came out perfectly! Thank you for the recipe. GF pies for Thanksgiving was my assignment since I am the only one who knows how to make the crust. This year in addition to my GF pumpkin pie I wanted to make something apple, and I have such fond memories of tarte aux pommes from my time in France.I googled gluten free tarte aux pommes and your recipe popped. right up.
