Description
A classic French dessert featuring tender apples caramelized in butter and sugar, baked under a buttery pastry crust, and then inverted to reveal a beautiful apple topping.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 3 large apples, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In an oven-safe skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.
- Stir in the sugar and cinnamon until well combined.
- Arrange the apple slices in a decorative pattern over the sugar mixture in the skillet.
- Place the puff pastry sheet over the apples, tucking in the edges around the fruit.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed.
- Let it cool in the skillet for 5 minutes.

Notes
- Use firm apples like Gala, Fuji, or Honeycrisp for best results.
- Ensure the skillet is oven-safe.
