Hello guys,
I always wanted to do a Tatin pie, aka upside down caramelized apple pie... Well now I am good !
Here's a recipe for a good tart Tatin with a little twist. I didn't used puff pastry, I used shortcrust pastry, because I do prefer crumbly over crusty
Ingredients
----------------
- 10 apples
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup water
- double cream
- Short crust pastry (crumbly effect) or more traditionally a puff pastry
Baking-ware
-----------------
- Cake pan with high borders
- Sauce pan
- Peeler
- Rolling pin
Instructions
-----------------
- Peel all the apples and cut them in half
- Sugar in the sauce pan, water also, mix it up
- High heat
- Don't stir, don't touch (warning very very very hot)
- As it gets some color add the cream
- Stir it over medium heat and pour it in the baking pan
- Place the apples halves upright
- Fill the dish with apples
- Place the pastry on top, and push the edges of it in the baking pan
- Glaze with milk
- Bake for 30 minutes at 185°C or 370F
- Put it upside down with care
- Eat warm with creme fraiche
Hummmm. So delicious don't you think ? You can also enjoy it with ice cream, but my grand ma used to put some creme fraiche so I am doing the same.
Please let me know if you try it,
Best,
Gab
