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.

5. Tuck the pastry down into the sides of the dish.
