Ingredients
- 300g Puff Pastry
- Dusting Plain Flour
- 6 Braeburn Apples
- 100g Caster Sugar
- 85g Butter
- to serve Creme Fraiche
Instructions
1
Roll the pastry to a 3mm-thick round on a lightly floured surface and cut a 24cm circle, using a plate as a guide.
2
Lightly prick all over with a fork, wrap in cling film on a baking sheet and freeze while preparing the apples.
3
scalding up oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4.
4
strip, quarter and core the apples.
5
Put the sweetener in a flameproof 20cm ceramic Tatin dish or a 20cm ovenproof heavy-based frying pot and place over a medium-high scalding up.
6
bake the sweetener for 5-7 mins to a dark amber caramel syrup that’s starting to smoke, then turn off the scalding up and agitate in the 60g diced chilled shortening.
7
To assemble the Tarte Tatin, arrange the apple quarters very tightly in a circle around the edge of the dish first, rounded-side down, then fill in the middle in a similar fashion.
8
Gently press with your hands to ensure there are no gaps.
9
Brush the fruit with the melted shortening.
10
bake in the oven for 30 mins, then remove and place the disc of frozen puff pastry on top – it will quickly defrost.
11
Tuck the edges down the inside of the dish and, with a knife, prick a few holes in the pastry to allow steam to escape.
12
bake for a further 40-45 mins until the pastry is golden brown and crisp.
13
Allow to cool to room temperature for 1 hr before running a knife around the edge of the dish and inverting it onto a large serving plate that is deep enough to contain the juices.
14
present with crème fraîche or vanilla ice heavy cream.
