Gluten-free Apple tart

I recently purchased some white rice flour to make green tea cookies (which ended up being shortbread with gunpowder green tea flecks, which you couldn't taste...more on that later), and there was a recipe on the bag for gluten-free pie crust. Why not try?

1 1/2 cups white rice flour

1/4 tsp baking powder

pinch salt

1 tablespoon sugar

1 egg

1/4 cup melted butter 

Sift all dry materials together in one bowl-combine butter and egg in another. Mix the wet and dry ingredients with your hands until they form pea-sized balls. Turn onto a lightly  (rice) floured surface and roll into a 9-inch circle. Use a spatula to break and pull about six pieces of the dough and place in a greased pie dish or tart pan. Bake according to your recipe.

I decided to make an apple tart with egg. I sort of threw everything together according to memory. I used two granny smith apples, sliced, 2 eggs, about 1/4 cup heavy cream and the same amount of milk ( a bit less ), and a small handful of sugar.

Sprinkle with cinnamon-I baked mine for almost twenty minutes.
