Apple tart with apricot jam
Ingredients
- apples — 3
- puff pastry (yeast-leavened)
- apricot jam — 3 tbsp
- flour or starch — 1 tbsp
- cinnamon — 1 tsp
- sugar — 1 tbsp
- butter — 20 g
Method
- Slice the apples thinly. For the same pattern, cut as neatly as possible without breaking the slices apart, then move them carefully onto a plate.
- Spread the puff pastry with apricot jam.
- Dust with flour or starch on top. This keeps the juice and jam from making the tart too wet.
- Arrange the apples on top. Crimp the edges of the pastry.
- Sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar to taste and dot with pieces of butter.
- Bake in an oven preheated to 180°C for about 25 minutes.
- The apples should be soft and the edges golden.
