Apple Tarts

My boss aquired a bunch of apples recently and gave some to me to make tarts out of. (While, of course, recieving a small tax of tarts herself)

I made the crust the same as the Alaskan Mixed Berry Tarts because I liked it so much! ^_^ Rice vinegar and all. Still don't know if that affects the recipe or not. *shrug*

Filling
PEEL & DE-CORE four apples 
(de-core as in remove the core, not design and decorating)

CUT them into bits 
SQUEEZE 1/2 a lemon over them
MIX 1/2 cup of brown sugar
MIX 2 tablespoons of cinnamon
SIT until juicy

I used my (CLEAN) hands to make this and they tasted so yummy!! Covered in sugar and sour and apple-yness. 

I never quite worked out how to cook these. I tried the flash-and bake method, like the berry tarts. But then they were quite dry on top. I also tried to just cook them at 350 degrees for 13 minutes, but then they were too juicy to get out of the muffin tins! 
Everyone who ate them seemed to love them, though, and said they didn't see the difference. Maybe I'm just too picky then? Who knows. XP

Apple tarts!
 I did notice that if any apple bits stuck up over the top of the crust-level too much, it got burnt in the cooking, but I managed to avoid that most of the time.
