Equipment

Chopping Board
Knife
mixing bowl
fluted tart tin (20x20cm)

Ingredients

3 apples (I used pink lady)
0.5 tbsp cinnamon
1.5 tbsp maple syrup
1 sheet puff pastry
2 tsp coconut sugar

Metric - US Customary

Instructions

Firstly, peel and finely slice the apples
Add the apples to a large mixing bowl with the cinnamon and maple syrup and stir to combine
Lay the pastry out over a circular fluted tin. Prick the base of the pasty a few times with a fork - this allows air to escape and prevents the pastry rising up
Add the apple mixture on top of the pastry and fold the out edges of the pastry down to create a rim around the edge
Sprinkle with coconut sugar on top and bake at 180C / 360F for 30 minutes or until pastry is golden

Substitutions & Variations: I have included a list of these in the post above.

To Store: Best served fresh but you can store in an airtight container or wrapped in cling film or plastic wrap. Make sure to leave it at room temperature, NOT in the fridge. It will store for 2 days.

To Freeze: I wouldn’t recommend freezing this recipe.

Tip 1: I find pink lady apples work really well in this recipe.

Tip 2: Poking holes in the puff pastry base helps the heat escape and improves the base.

Tip 3: Don’t over bake, and allow to rest at room temperature for a couple minutes before slicing.
