Rustic apple tart (tarta rustica de manzanas)















I really wanted to make a recipe with apples, it's true that it's summer here (and I know in many sites is snowing sigh!) but I always have apples, and found this recipe I had saved some time ago.
It's the kind of cake that I love a rustic tart is really delicious.
