Tarte Tatin

Ingredients

  • 80 g/5 1/3 tablespoons butter, plus a little extra for greasing
  • 80 g/1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1/2 x 320g sheet of puff pastry (you’ll need 160 g)

Method

  1. This classic French dessert is a great way to use up frozen slices of apple.
  2. Melt the butter and sugar in a pan over a medium heat until bubbling at the edges and thickened slightly.
