INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

Thaw pastry in wrapper according to package instructions. Refrigerate
until ready to use. Heat oven to 450 degrees. On a floured surface,
roll out pastry in one direction to a 14-inch square. Prevent rolling
pin from sticking by lightly sprinkling pastry with flour, brush away
excess; rotate dough a quarter turn after each pass. Using a 12-inch
tart pan as a guide, trim pastry to form a circle. Fold it in half,
transfer to a parchment-lined 14- by 16-inch baking sheet, unfold,  and
chill at least 15 minutes. Peel the apples, and place them in a  large
nonreactive bowl with lemon juice and rinds to prevent  discoloration.
Add just enough water to cover. Cut each apple into  quarters, and
remove core; slice thinly (no more than 1/8-inch thick)  with a sharp
knife. Remove pastry from refrigerator, and, working  quickly, arrange
apple slices in neat, concentric circles to about  1/2 inch from edge
of pastry. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons sugar, and  bake for 15 minutes;
rotate baking sheet after 7 minutes for even  baking. While tart bakes,
prepare mulled cider glaze by combining  cider, cinnamon, sugar and
vanilla in a saute pan. Cook over medium  heat 12 to 15 minutes,
stirring frequently, until mixture thickens  and reduces to a syrup a
quarter to a third of its original volume.  Keep warm until brushed
onto tart. Reduce heat to 375 degrees. Remove  tart; place an inverted
12 inch tart ring around it to keep edges  from burning. Brush lightly
with glaze (reserve a quarter of  still-warm glaze for serving); return
tart to oven 10 to 15 minutes,  or until apples begin to caramelize.
Remove tart from oven; carefully  brush with remaining glaze. Cool 15
minutes; slice into wedges with a  pizza wheel. Serve with ice cream or
a dollop of creme fraiche.  Source: "Martha Stewart Living Magazine,
