Tarte Tatin |
Tarte Tatin is a classic French dessert made with caramelized apples and a buttery pastry crust. It is typically made with tart apples, such as Granny Smith or Braeburn, and is served warm or at room temperature.
Ingredients:
- 6 tablespoons (90g) unsalted butter, plus more for greasing the pan
- 1 pound (450g) Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, and sliced
- 1/2 cup (100g) sugar
- 1 (9-inch) unbaked pie crust
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Grease a 9-inch cast iron skillet with butter.
- In the prepared skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the apples and sugar and cook, stirring occasionally, until the apples are soft and the sugar is melted, about 10 minutes.
- Place the pie crust over the apples and tuck the edges down around the sides of the pan.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the apples are tender.
- Let cool for 10 minutes before inverting the tart onto a serving plate.
- Serve warm or at room temperature.
Tips:
- For a more intense apple flavor, use tart apples, such as Granny Smith or Braeburn.
- To make the pie crust ahead of time, roll it out and place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Cover the crust with plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. When ready to use, let the crust sit at room temperature for 15 minutes before rolling it out again.
- Tarte Tatin can be served with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
- Tarte Tatin is a delicious and impressive dessert that is perfect for any occasion.
Enjoy!
