Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 sheet puff pastry sheet
- 3 medium apples
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons apricot jam
- 1 teaspoon water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Remove the puff pastry sheet from the freezer and let it thaw according to the package instructions (usually about 5-10 minutes).
While the pastry is thawing, peel, core, and thinly slice the apples. Place the slices in a bowl and toss with lemon juice to prevent browning.
Roll out the puff pastry sheet onto the lined baking sheet. Optionally, create a small border by folding in all the edges of the pastry by about half an inch.
Arrange the apple slices in overlapping rows or a spiral pattern on top of the puff pastry, leaving the border uncovered.
In a small bowl, mix the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the apples.
Dot the apples with small pieces of unsalted butter for extra richness.
Bake the tart in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed, and the apples are tender.
While the tart bakes, warm the apricot jam and water in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring until smooth to create a glaze.
Once the tart is out of the oven, brush the warm apricot glaze over the apples to give them a glossy finish.
Allow the tart to cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature, optionally paired with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
