6. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees. Roll out the dough into a circle to fit the pan and trim if necessary. Make four holes in the dough. Remove the skillet from the heat and place the dough over the apples. Tuck the edges of the dough underneath the apples. Bake until the dough turns golden brown, about 20 minutes. Serve the tart with whipped cream.
