Description
And we start to quickly devour it, drizzled with rich cream or simply with vanilla ice cream!
Ingredients
- Sugar - 7.8 oz
- Butter - 3.5 oz
- Apple - 2 lbs
- Puff Pastry - 7.1 oz
- Ground Cinnamon - a pinch
- Vanilla Pod - 1 piece
Step by Step guide
Step 1
Peel the apples. Use a special corer to remove the core. Cut the apples in half.
Step 2
Let's start making the caramel! In a pan (we used a regular saucepan here) pour in the sugar and place it over medium heat (well, not exactly a regular saucepan, but a tri-ply one — copper-aluminum-stainless steel — it's more practical and cheaper than purely copper cookware).
Step 3
While the sugar begins to melt, cut the vanilla pod lengthwise and carefully scrape out the seeds.
Step 4
Let it cool down a bit and thicken, then start placing the apples in, one after another. It's easy — they stick to the bottom by themselves.
Step 5
Sprinkle the apples lightly with sugar and cinnamon. Cut the butter into pieces and place them between the apple slices.
Step 6
Take good puff pastry; we used ready-made, brought by the baker, sorry. It's kind of customary here: there's no need to do someone else's job in the kitchen if it's their profession.
Step 7
Roll it out and poke it generously with a fork.
Step 8
Seal our pie well. The pastry should fit very tightly against the apples.
Step 9
And send it to a preheated oven at 356°F for about 40 minutes. Watch out — all ovens are different! Remove it and let the pie cool.
Step 10
Now, how do we carefully take it out? Place your palm on top, press firmly, and gently but firmly twist it. The apples should release from the bottom of the pan. Slightly warm the pie on the stove over low heat. Drain the excess caramel! Return the caramel to the heat, bring it to a boil, and let it thicken again (it’s already mixed with apple juice).
Step 11
Cover the pan with a plate and quickly, so it doesn't fall apart, flip the Tatin (remember what magical word to say while squinting?). And 'glaze' it with hot caramel.
