Apple Tarte Tatin
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 10 gala apples, peeled, cored and halved
- 1 sheet puff pastry
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- In a 9-inch cast-iron skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Sprinkle 1/2 cup sugar evenly into the pan.
- Arrange the apples in the pan. Increase the heat slightly, so the sugar simmers, and cook until the liquid in the pan is caramelized, 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer to a 425 F oven and bake until the apples are tender, about 15 minutes.
- Unfold 1 sheet of puff pastry on a lightly floured surface. Place a plate on top and trim around the edges to make a pastry round; refrigerate until the apples are done.
- Position the pastry over the apples and bake until deep golden and crisp, 15 to 20 minutes; let cool for 20 minutes before inverting onto a rimmed platter.
- Whip the heavy cream with the 1 tsp sugar until soft peaks form; serve with the tart.
