      My first tart aux pommes! The crust was very flaky! Should it feel flaky and dry or flaky or more moist? Thanks!

            Delicious! The flaky crust is a sign of a well-made tart, isn’t it @sussan_scoolinaryteam ?

              Hi @soldamiani and @emboyd26
              The ideal texture of an apple tart crust should be flaky and slightly crisp, but not dry. It should crumble gently when bitten into, while still retaining enough moisture to avoid feeling brittle or sandy. If it turns out too dry, it could be due to overworking the dough or baking it a bit too long.

              To achieve the perfect balance, make sure the butter is well incorporated, and let the dough rest adequately before baking. Also, avoid overbaking to help retain some moisture in the crust. Your tart looks amazing!
