Praline Apple Tart


You know something I always have in my freezer? Puff pastry. Puff pastry is one of those food items that can be used for sweet or savory foods, appetizer or main dish or dessert.  It is always a winner! I used my basic praline sauce recipe minus the pecans. It can be found by clicking here.



Praline Apple Tart

What you need:
  • 1 sheet puff pastry, defrosted according to package directions, cut in half
  • 2-3 green apples, cored and slice
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Lemon juice from half of a fresh lemon
  • 1/2 cup Basic Praline Sauce (or a jarred sauce of your choice)
  • Powdered sugar for dusting
What to do:
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees
  • On a very, lightly floured surfaced, give the puff pastry sheets 2-3 rolls with your rolling pin to thin them out just a little.
  • Place the sheets on a cookie sheet and set aside
  • In a medium bowl toss the apples, cinnamon, vanilla and lemon juice until well coated.
  • Assemble the sliced apples neatly on the pastry
  • Place in the pre-heated oven for 15 minutes or until pastry is browned and puffed around the edges.
  • Once baked, drizzle with the praline sauce and sprinkle with powdered sugar
  • Can be eaten warm or at room temperature
