Apricot Tarte Tatin With Crème Fraîche And Lavender Sugar
- 2 tsp dried lavender flowers
- 5 cups sugar
- 3/4 cup powdered sugar
- 7 tbsp butter
- 1 9 inch refrigerated pie crust
- 10 None apricots, pitted and thickly sliced
- 1/3 cup creme fraiche or sour cream
- For the lavender sugar, stir the lavender flowers into the sugar. Store in a large jar.
- Roll pie crust so that it is slightly larger than the pan in which you plan to cook the tarte tatin. Chill until ready to use.
- Preheat the oven to 400u0b0F. In a 9 inch oven-proof saute pan, over medium heat, combine powdered sugar with 5 tbsp water and the butter, heat for 2-3 mins, until golden and caramelized.
- Remove from the heat. Place the apricot slices cut-side-down in the syrup. Unroll chilled pie crust, place on top of the apricots and gently press down. Bake for 25-30 mins. Allow to rest for 10 mins, then carefully invert onto a serving plate or platter. Serve drizzled with the creme fraiche or sour cream and sprinkled with the lavender sugar.
