Place the apple slices in a mixing bowl and toss with \u00bd cup of the granulated sugar and the lemon juice and apple pie spice. Let the apples macerate for 15 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>Heat a 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the butter and tilt the pan around to coat it evenly. Stir in the remaining sugar and cook, stirring frequently, for 6 to 8 minutes, or until the syrup is a deep walnut brown. Remove the skillet from the heat and set aside.<\/p>\n<p>Preheat the oven to 425\u00baF. Drain the apple slices and arrange one layer of slices tightly packed in a decorative pattern on top of the caramel. Pack the remaining apple slices on top of the decorative base evenly; they don\u2019t need to be artistically arranged. Place the skillet over medium-high heat and press down on the apples as they begin to soften.<\/p>\n<p>Using a bulb baster, baste the apples with the juices that form in the skillet as they cook. Do not stir the apples. After 5 minutes, or when the apples begin to soften, cover the skillet and cook the apples for 10 minutes. Uncover the skillet and continue to cook,\u00a0basting the apples often, for 10 minutes more, or until the apples are soft and the liquid is thick.<\/p>\n<p>Turn off the heat. Roll out the dough to an 11-inch circle (the dough should be 1 inch larger than the skillet on all sides). Transfer the dough on the rolling pin to the top of the apples, then tuck in the ends of the dough with the tip of a paring knife to enclose the apples nearest the sides of the skillet. Cut 6 (1-inch) slits in the top of the dough to allow the steam to escape.<\/p>\n<p>Bake the tarte in the oven for 20 minutes, or until the pastry is golden and the juices are thick. Transfer the skillet to a rack and allow the tarte to cool for 3 minutes; then run a knife around the pastry to loosen it from the pan.<\/p>\n<p>Cover a baking sheet with heavy-duty aluminum foil. Invert the baking sheet on top of the skillet. Holding the edge of the baking sheet and the handle of the skillet together with one hand, use the other hand as a guide to turn over the baking sheet and skillet. Remove the skillet, and return any apple slices stuck to the pan to the top of the tart.<\/p>\n<p>Slide the tarte from the baking sheet to a serving platter with an offset spatula. Serve warm or at room temperature.<\/p>\n<p><em>Note: The tarte can be made up to 6 hours in advance and kept, uncovered, on the serving platter at room temperature. Variation: Substitute 8 Bosc or Bartlett pears for the apples.<\/em>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"author-credit\">Excerpted from The New Cast Iron Skillet Cookbook: 150 Fresh Ideas for America\u2019s Favorite Pan by Ellen Brown. \u00a9 2014 Sterling Epicure.
