Called the quintessential Canadian dessert, the recipe for butter tarts first appeared in 1900 in a local cookbook published in Barrie Ontario Canada. The method appeared in the Royal Victoria Hospitals women's auxiliary cookbook. A relatively simple recipe, the butter tart is similar to the French Canadian tarte au sucre (sugar pie). Unusually thick rich flaky pastry shell filled with a melted concoction of brown sugar, eggs and butter. Some controversy surrounds the addition of raisins or walnuts/pecans. Whether the filling is runny or set softly is argued by connoisseurs but most people like them any way they can find them.
I did some research on this and was unable to find medieval apple tarts. Nevertheless, apple pies did exist in the Middle Ages, and so did pastries of many kinds, custards, and so on. I think it is safe to guess that apple tarts existed, though possibly not by that name, and possibly, like most other medieval recipes, unrecorded.

Butter tarts can typically be stored at room temperature for about 1 to 2 days if kept in an airtight container. If you refrigerate them, they can last for about a week. For longer storage, you can freeze butter tarts, where they can remain good for up to 3 months. Always check for signs of spoilage before consuming.
The main difference between pies and tarts is the type of crust used. Pies have a flaky crust that covers the filling, while tarts have a firmer, crumbly crust that holds the filling in a shallow, fluted pan.
They tend to lose their best texture after about a week.
Popcorn with butter is a mixture. The popcorn and butter retain their individual properties and can be physically separated.
The main difference between a tart and a pie is the crust. A tart typically has a thinner, crumbly crust made with butter and flour, while a pie has a thicker, flakier crust made with butter and shortening. Tarts also usually have a shallow, open top, while pies have a deeper filling with a top crust covering it.
