Apple and Blue Cheese Tart

Apple pie is a Great British classic, popular all over the country. Apparently, apples used to be sent up north from Kent – the Garden of England from very early days – on the coal barges, because they loved their apple pie in Yorkshire and other northern counties. There they would serve the pie with cheese, and this recipe is an adaptation of that idea. You can use the classic Stilton, as here, or a Wensleydale, or even the Irish Cashel Blue.

It’s made in the classic French tart
