Einfacher Apfeltarte aus Blätterteig

Zutaten

• Frozen and thawed puff pastry (one store-bought package is enough)
• 2-3 apples of your choice (I like Granny Smith)
• 3 tablespoons (40g) granulated sugar
• 3 tablespoons (40g) unsalted butter, melted

Zubereitung

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 400F/250C. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

2. 2

   Cut puff pastry into two long strips, each approximately 3.5x12 inch (9x30 cm).

3. 3

   Peel apples, cut them in half through the core, and remove the core using a melon baller or a knife. Place the halved apples cut side down, and cut into very thin slices.

4. 4

   Arrange apples on the pastry, overlapping each other slightly, leaving a bit of a border around the sides. For each tart, sprinkle half of the sugar and gently brush with half of the melted butter.

5. 5

   Bake for 20-25 minutes, until edges are golden brown. Allow to cool completely on a wire rack.

6. 6

   Serve warm or at room temperature. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve with ice cream if you like.
