- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon milk
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon sugar

Preheat oven to 365 F. Use two sheets semi-thawed pastry to line fluted tart pan approximately 10 inches, pressing and trimming neatly to fit; chill 15 minutes.
Peel, core and thinly slice apples into large bowl; sprinkle with sugar, lemon zest and cornstarch then toss well to evenly coat.
Arrange apple slices in pastry-lined tart pan, laying flat. Beat egg with milk. Brush egg wash around pastry rim.
Cut 1/2-inch strips from remaining pastry sheet and make lattice pattern over apples, crimping edges once lattice is completed.
Brush tart with egg wash and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.
Bake 35 to 40 minutes, or until pastry is golden. Allow to cool at least 15 minutes before slicing.
