Puff pastry, ice-cream, and caramel? Yes, please! This Apple and ginger tarte tantin is the perfect one-pan pud to top off any meal.
Ingredients
- 320g puff pastry, rolled slightly larger than your pan
- 75g unsalted butter, cubed
- 175g caster sugar
- 2cm chunk ginger, grated
- 7-8 apples, peeled, cored and halved
- Creme fraiche or ice cream, to serve
- You will need:
- 26cm heavy-based oven/hob-safe frying pan
Instructions
- Roll out the pastry on a floured worktop. Trim to a circle just larger than the pan, then chill until needed.
- Scatter the butter over the base of the pan, add the sugar and ginger, then nestle in the apples, rounded side down.
- Put the pan on a medium heat and cook for 50 mins, or until the apple juices, sugar and butter combine to make caramel. Be careful not to let it catch and burn.
- Heat the oven to 200°C. Put the pastry on top of the apples, tucking in the edges. Prick the pastry a few times with a fork, then bake for 30 mins, or until puffed up and golden brown.
- Let the tart sit for 3 mins, before carefully inverting onto a plate. Serve with creme fraiche or vanilla ice cream.
