Looking for methods of removing the tart from the tart pan. What is your technique for removing the tart from the pan without damaging the surface or crust integrity? Thanks ahead!

This was a huge hit with DH & DS. The morning after, I found one slim wedge left in the kitchen. The low-fat cream cheese works just fine, as did using a 10" springform pan & 3 large cooking apples. Thanks LorenLou for a "tart with a twist". -
This tart is fantastic. I made it in my food processor which shortened prep time. I'll be serving it at my next dinner party. No whipped cream needed! Thank you for the recipe. -
This is so good, everyone loved it. The review is for the tart itself (not the pastry) it was the hit of our dinner and so perfect for this fall weather and all our apples from our orchard. Served it topped with homemade salted caramel ice cream and whipped cream. A stellar desert that made me look so talented. I'll be using it often

This was a really simple, and quick to assemble recipe. I think I might have liked to have par-baked the crust, my crust became a little soggy. Loved that this tart wasn't overly sweet. Thanks for sharing the recipe. -
Adjusted the recipe for my 11" tart pan without a problem. The cheesecake filling is absolutely delicious -- sweet and creamy without being too heavy. I omitted the almonds and didn't particularly miss them. All in all, this is a great recipe that is sure to impress!

Turned out so well despite few modifications. For the crust, I used 1/4 cup sugar and 1/16 tsp salt instead of 1/3 cup sugar. Because I ran out of butter, I also substituted with 1/4 cup butter+ 1/4 cup butter flavored shortening. I followed the recipe exactly for the cream cheese mixture. I added only 2 tbsp sugar to the sliced apples (about 4 medium Granny Smith apples) instead of 1/3 cup. I omitted the sliced almonds but will not do so next time because it seems the tart could taste even more amazing with them. The tart came out pretty and not to sweet. However it tasted a little eggy so next time I might try to use only 1 egg and a bit of cream instead of 2 eggs.

I live in Sugar Land, Texas. I love to try new recipes. My husband jokes that if he likes something, I never make it again for 6 months! My children are very picky, but do have their favorites that I try to include in our menu more often than every 6 months.
