Ingredients
  • 7 Royal Gala apples
  • 200 g sugar
  • 30 g butter
  • ½ pod of vanilla
  • 2 g salt
  • 1 disc of puff pastry 
Preparation
  • Peel and hollow out the apples, then cut in half.
  • Take a non-stick pan with removable handle and begin to make dry caramel.
  • When the sugar has melted and turned brown, add butter, salt and scraped vanilla. 
  • Away from the heat, blend well, then add the half-apples upright and tight in the pan.
  • Bake at 170°C for about 20 minutes.
  • Place a disc of puff pastry on top of the apples, tucking it into the edges of the pan.

  • Remove from the oven and wait until the tart is luke-warm.
  • Turn the tart upside-down on a plate and serve with vanilla ice-cream or thick cream.
