French Spiral Apple Tart Tatin

Cultural Context

The Tarte Tatin originated in France in the late 19th century, created by the Tatin sisters who ran a hotel in Lamotte-Beuvron. This upside-down caramelized apple tart became a beloved classic, celebrated for its simple yet indulgent flavors. Traditionally served warm, it has inspired countless variations around the world, making it a staple in French patisserie and home kitchens alike.

Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat until foamy.

Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract.

8

Transfer the apple mixture to a tart pan, arranging them in a spiral pattern.

9

Roll out the puff pastry and place it over the apples, tucking the edges down into the pan.

10

Cut a few slits in the pastry to allow steam to escape.

11

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown.

12

Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes.

13

Invert the tart onto a serving plate, allowing the apples to be on top.
