There is nothing as easy to make as a French apple tart. I made one tonight, so I thought I'd do a photo cooking lesson. Okay - everyone ready? You need:
A couple apples, a half a cup of sugar, some cinnamon, lemon to keep the apple slices from turning brown, a tablespoon of butter, and a ready-to-back puff pie pastry.
First step:
Lay the pastry in the dish and slice the apples. Toss them artistically into the pie dish.
Step two:
Cut a one tablespoon of butter over apples. Add 1/2 cup sugar (sprinkle over the top) and a dash of cinnamon.
Step three:
Bake in a 175 C° oven for about 45 minutes.
Let cool a little bit, then enjoy!!

If you're a fan of apple-y desserts, I'll dig out my recipe for apple custard meringue pie. Really. I didn't have any because I'm not an apple fan, but the hubby loved it, and it was really fun to make (if you like doing complicated-but-simple recipes).
LOVE this, you should do something like this on a regular basis. LOL. I can always use a good desert recipe.
By the way, thanks for saying it was easy and it ACTUALLY being easy. ~wink~
December - I love apple recipes so fire away!!
Bonita, thank you!
Virenda - OK - for next week I'll make a cheese soufflée...LOL
Seriously very easy.
:-)
this looks yummy--great idea posting pictures!!
Ooo, yummy. I agree with Virenda, do this on a regular basis. My suggestion for the next photo-baking feature: december quinn's apple custard meringue pie. ;o)
Just read further comments, apple souffle sounds good too!
oops, cheese souffle. But apple souffle sounds good too, doncha think?
Mmmm, Sam, I’ll bet this French Apple Tart was delicious! Not only was the recipe invitingly easy, the accompanying photos were sensational, too. It’s clear that your talent and creativity extend far beyond writing, my friend! :-)
Will do. Be warned, it's long. But really fun to do.
Aw - thanks Daisy!!
And Nienke, I'd love to do an apple soufflée - but I bet it's harder than my cheese soufflée.
The cheese one is a snap, I promise.
My mouth is watering!
Looks great, Sam. I wish I could get a good puff pastry locally, but our market sells crap (puff pastry without butter -- can you imagine?) But I'll bet this would be equally good with a decent pie crust.
Oooh, Sam - great recipe. Mind if I do desserts some day on my recipe blog and post this (giving you credit, of couse!)???
I always like 'starting' my day by visiting your blog - it comforts me. The photos here are quite lovely and the recipe looks fantastic.
Want Quinn's apple custard meringue pie when you get it, too - lol. I'm a sucker for good apple recipes. ~ Have a terrific day, my online friend.
Yum, yum, yum. Not only does it sound delish, but the pics are gorgeous. Great use of lighting, Sam!
