- 1/2 tsp lemon juice
- 2 TBS soft light brown sugar, packed
- 1 TBS plain all purpose flour
- 1/8 tsp ground cinnamon
- pinch ground nutmeg
- pinch salt
- 1 egg yolk, beaten together with 1 tsp water

Streusel Apple Tarts (small batch)
- 1 sheet ready-rolled short crust pastry (Pillsbury or Jus Rol)
- 2 medium apples, peeled and diced (I used granny smith)
- 1/2 tsp lemon juice
- 2 TBS soft light brown sugar, packed
- 1 TBS plain all purpose flour
- 1/8 tsp ground cinnamon
- pinch ground nutmeg
- pinch salt
- 1 egg yolk, beaten together with 1 tsp water
- coarse sugar to sprinkle (I used demerara)
- vanilla ice cream to serve
- 2 TBS flour
- 2 TBS soft light sugar, packed
- 1 TBS oats
- 1 TBS butter
- Preheat the oven to 350*F/180*C/ gas mark 4. Line a baking dish with some baking paper. Set aside.
- Make the streusel topping by rubbing all of the ingredients together until you have a crumbly mixture which would be easy to sprinkle
- To make the apple filling, combine the diced apples, sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg and lemon juice in a bowl.
- Unroll the pastry and cut out two six inch rounds. Place the rounds on the baking dish.
- Make six cuts 2 1/2 inches in from the sides all the way around the outside, leaving the center intact. If you like you can round off the edges of these cuts for a prettier presentation.
- Place one half of the filling into the center of each pastry round. Sprinkle one half of the streusel topping over top of each.
- Bring the cuts in the pastry up to almost cover the filling completely and overlapping them slightly, leaving about an inch or so in the center with the streusel topping exposed.
- Brush the surface of the pastry with the beaten egg and sprinkle with coarse sugar.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes until crisp and golden brown and the filling inside has softened.
- Leave to sit for 10 minutes before serving warm with a scoop of ice cream on top. (Or lashings of custard sauce!)
To make pastry cookies. Press the scraps together. Roll out to an oblong. Brush with soft butter, sprinkle with cinnamon sugar and then roll up tightly. Cut into 1/4 inch slices and place onto a paper lined baking sheet, cut side down. Press each one slightly to flatten a bit. Bake for about 15 minutes in the oven along side of the tarts. Delicious!
Alternately you can press the scraps together, cut into 2 inch rounds and press into a patty tin. Fill with a bit of jam and bake next to the tarts until golden brown and bubbly. Be careful as jam can really burn when it is hot.
