Apple-Rosemary Tarte Tatin
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 3/4 cup cold, unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
- 2 egg yolks, beaten with 1 tablespoon of water
- 1 cup sugar
- 10 large Granny Smith apples, peeled, quartered and cored
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 1/2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary
- To make the crust, place the flour, sugar and salt in a food processor and pulse just to combine.
- Add the butter and pulse until most of the butter is incorporated into the flour.
- Add the yolk mixture and pulse until mixture just begins to come together.
- Gather the dough into a ball, flatten into a disk, wrap in plastic and refrigerate.
- To make the filling, place the sugar in an 11-inch ovenproof skillet over medium-low heat.
- When the sugar begins to melt, stir until it melts completely and turns into a caramel-colored syrup.
- Remove from the heat.
- Toss the apples with the melted butter and rosemary.
- Arrange the apples in the skillet on top of the syrup in 2 layers, making concentric circles; put the first layer in core side down and the second layer core side up.
- Place over medium heat and cover the skillet.
- Cook for 5 minutes.
- Uncover and cook for 10 minutes.
- Set aside to cool.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Roll the dough out into a circle slightly larger than the skillet.
- Place the dough over the apples and fold in the extra dough, pressing it against the skillet to form a seal.
- Bake until the crust is lightly browned, about 30 minutes.
- Let stand for 10 minutes.
- Quickly but carefully invert the skillet over a large plate or platter.
- Serve warm with creme fraiche or vanilla ice cream.
