For the tart dough:

2 cups of flour
6oz. unsalted butter-cut into pieces
+ 2 tablespoons melted butter
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar
7 tablespoons water


For the filling:

6 cups peeled and sliced, firm tart baking apples, like Granny Smith variety
1/3 cup huckleberries
2 tablespoons melted butter
1/3 cup sugar

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Mix flour, salt and sugar. Add 2 oz. butter and carefully work together to form a rough dough ball. Add the remaining butter and mix well, about 5 minutes, leaving some of the butter looking under mixed and "chunky" looking. Add the water until the dough just comes together, about 2-3 minutes. Wrap in plastic and let rest about 15 minutes. Toss the apples, huckleberries and sugar together. Roll out dough very thin, about 1/8 inch thick. Place dough on 9 inch tart pan; edges of dough will overlap the sides, about 1 1/2 inch. Place apples on dough. fold dough over fruit. Brush melted butter over edges. Bake in oven about 35-40 minutes until very dark and crispy. Slide the cooked tart on a rack to cool. Serve with ice cream
