Prepare the sweet pastry by mixing 200g of flour, 100g of softened butter, 100g of powdered sugar, 42g of lightly beaten egg, 1/2 tsp of salt, and vanilla aroma until a dough forms.

Roll out the pastry and fit it into a 24cm tart pan.

Pre-bake the pastry for about 10-15 minutes until lightly golden.

For the Normande cream, whisk together 110g of milk, 110g of 30% liquid cream, 80g of granulated sugar, and 2 eggs, adding vanilla aroma if desired.

Peel and slice the 2 medium golden apples and arrange them on top of the pre-baked pastry.

Pour the Normande cream mixture over the apples.

Bake the tart for approximately 50 minutes to 1 hour until set and golden on top.
