Rustic Caramel Apple Tart

• 2/3 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 cup cold butter, cubed
• 6-1/2 teaspoons cold water
• 1/8 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1-1/2 cups chopped peeled tart apples
• 3 tablespoons sugar
• 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 2 tablespoons caramel ice cream topping, warmed

In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar and salt; cut in butter until crumbly. Gradually add water and vanilla, tossing with a fork until dough forms a ball. Cover and refrigerate 30 minutes or until easy to handle.  Preheat oven to 400°. On a lightly floured surface, roll dough into a 10-in. circle. Transfer to a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Combine the filling ingredients; spoon over pastry to within 2 in. of edges. Fold up edges of pastry over filling, leaving center uncovered. Combine sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle over filling.  Bake 25-30 minutes or until crust is golden and filling is bubbly. Using parchment paper, slide tart onto a wire rack. Drizzle with caramel topping. Serve warm.
