Ingredients
Scale
- 6–8 medium apples, peeled, cored, and quartered
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cut into pieces
- 1 sheet (14.1 oz) frozen puff pastry, thawed
- Optional: 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a 9-inch oven-safe skillet, melt sugar over medium heat until it forms a dark amber caramel.
- Remove from heat and add butter. Stir until melted and combined.
- Arrange apple slices tightly in a circular pattern over the caramel. Sprinkle with cinnamon if desired.
- Cook over medium heat for 10-15 minutes, until apples soften slightly.
- Roll out puff pastry slightly larger than the skillet. Place over apples, tucking edges inside the skillet.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until pastry is golden brown.
- Let cool for 10 minutes. Invert onto a serving plate. Serve warm.
Notes
- Use firm apples like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp.
- Watch the caramel closely to prevent burning.
- Serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
