Filling
- 1 10” unbaked store-bought pie crust, thawed
- 2 large Granny Smith apples peeled and sliced thin
- 4 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp all-purpose flour
- ¼ tsp ground cloves
- ½ tsp ground cinnamon
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon water
Caramel
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1 cup light corn syrup
- 2 cups light brown sugar packed
- ½ cup unsalted butter softened
- ½ tsp kosher salt
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Preheat the oven to 400F.
Unroll dough and transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Toss the sliced apples with the flour, sugar, cloves, cinnamon, and salt. Spoon over crust to within 2 in. of edges. Fold up edges of crust over filling, leaving center uncovered.
Whisk egg and water; brush over crust.
Bake for 25 minutes or until the crust is golden and filling is bubbly.
While the pie bakes, combine the cream, corn syrup, sugar, butter, and salt in a heavy bottomed pot over medium heat and attach a candy thermometer to the side.
Stirring constantly, cook the mixture until the thermometer reaches 245F. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Set aside.
When the tart is finished, drizzle with caramel sauce and serve warm with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
