Tarte Tatin with Puff Pastry

Ingredients

• 5 pieces Apples (Pink Lady or Golden) (firm-fleshed apples, peeled and cut into large pieces)
• 100 g White sugar (for the caramel)
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice (adds acidity)
• 30 g Brown sugar (sprinkled on the pastry for a crunchy side)
• 0,5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon (optional, to add on the apples or the pastry)
• 1 roll Ready-made puff pastry (about 250 g, to roll out)
• 30 g Butter (to lightly grease the pan or the mold)
• 50 g Feta (half) (grated, optional to flavor the apples)

Instructions

1. Prepare the apples

   Peel the 5 apples, cut them into large pieces (about 2 cm). Set aside on the board.

   Time: PT5M

2. Make the caramel

   Pour 100 g of white sugar into the preheated pan over medium heat, let it melt gently without stirring until you obtain a golden caramel.

   Time: PT5M

3. Caramelise the apples

   Add the apple pieces to the caramel, pour 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, then cook over medium heat, stirring regularly for about 10 minutes until they are nicely browned and slightly caramelised.

   Time: PT10M

4. Season (optional)

   Sprinkle the cinnamon and, if desired, add the grated feta on the apples. Mix lightly.

   Time: PT2M

5. Prepare the pastry

   Roll out the puff pastry, sprinkle the surface with brown sugar and a little cinnamon, then roll it lightly with a rolling pin to incorporate the sugars.

   Time: PT5M

6. Cover the apples

   Place the pastry over the apples, centering it, fold the edges inward and prick a few holes with a wooden skewer to let steam escape.

   Time: PT5M

7. Bake

   Put the pan (or the mold) into the preheated oven at 180 °C for 30 minutes.

   Time: PT30M

   Temperature: 180°C

8. Rest before unmoulding

9. Unmould the tart

   Place a large plate over the pan and, in one swift motion, flip the tart onto the plate.

   Time: PT2M
