Ingredients

300 g puff pastry
dusting plain flour
6 braeburn apples
100 g caster sugar
85 g butter

Steps

Heat the oven to 400 F and roll the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface into a 10-inch round.
Melt the butter in a 10-inch ovenproof skillet over medium heat, then sprinkle in the caster sugar.
Cook the butter and sugar for 5 to 7 minutes until golden and syrupy.
Peel, halve, and core the apples, then arrange them tightly in the caramel.
Lay the pastry over the apples, tuck in the edges, and bake for 25 to 30 minutes.
Rest the tart for 5 minutes, then invert it onto a plate while holding the skillet and plate firmly together.
