These tarts are amazing and I love making individual desserts. They look so elegant.

Ingredients

  • 1 sheet Pepperidge Farms puff pastry cut into rectangles
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 vanilla bean
  • ½ lemon juiced
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 3 whole apples cored, halved and sliced, but not peeled
  • 1 tablespoon Land O’ Lakes butter
  • Store-bought caramel sauce for serving

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Place the puff pastry rectangles onto a silpat lined baking sheet. Add the sugar, salt, lemon juice and vanilla bean seeds to the apples. Stir to combine. Allow to sit for a few minutes.
  • Arrange the apple slices on the pastry rectangles in a straight line, overlapping as you go. Dot the top with little bits of the butter. Bake until the pastry is puffed and golden brown, about 20 minutes.
  • Remove from the pan immediately and place on a serving platter. Serve with caramel sauce on the side.

Notes

It would be a lot of fun to pick up both red and green apples and then alternate the slices on each pastry.
