From Fall's Harvest... Rustic Apple Tartlette






I wish you could smell this tart.... You wouldn't believe the heady intoxication it brings. The apples are just picked. They smell like you would imagine Winesaps would-- the exact reason they were likely named, but are just one small golden delicious, and one small Granny Smith. The flavors are the simplest; apples at their peak, a simple rustic crust, spicy cinnamon, a macy lacing of nutmeg.








The tartlette crust is inspired by Living Without's coconut shortbread recipe. I subbed Amaranth and Almond flour for the traditional Gluten Free Mix. I decreased the liquid by 2 Tablespoons (since I was using a combination of Splenda and Vanilla Simple Syrup instead of Honey), upped the salt a tad. The crust rolls out beautifully. Of COURSE you could use the sugar of your preference. There is so little in the recipe...



The apples take centre stage.













Low carb, Gluten Free, Vegan.



TRULY SPLENDID.






AND QUICKLY GONE! ;D









One quarter tartlette = 14.5 carbs, approximately.



Even better, some carbs are offset by the healthy portion of fiber these flours contain.



Pure enjoyment.



Happy Fall, to All!
