Apple Tarte Tatin
A Tarte Tatin is a classic French dessert that is basically just an upside-down pie.
Ingredients
- 6-8 apples peeled, cored and cut into 8 even wedges
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened to room temperature
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 8-10 ozs puff pastry sheet depending on the size of your package
- Flour for dusting board
Toppings:
- Whipped Cream optional
- vanilla bean ice cream optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Spread softened butter over the bottom of a 8-9” springform pan or ovenproof skillet.
- Sprinkle sugar over the butter layer.
- Layer apples in a repeating circular pattern over the sugar layer.
- Bake for 20 minutes or until the caramelized sugar is bubbling in between the apples. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool completely. Turn off oven.
- Once apples have completely cooled, Preheat oven to 350°F. Roll out dough on lightly floured surface to a circle slightly larger than your baking pan.
- Place pastry on top of apples.
- Bake for 20-30 minutes or until golden brown.
- Remove from oven, cool for 10 minutes.
- Invert a serving platter on top of pan. Quickly and carefully flip so that the apples are now on top of the pastry.
