Easy Apple Tart

By CandyH

Ingredients

• 1 sheet puffed pastry, cut lengthwise into half or thirds (to make long, skinny rectangles)
• 3 apples, cored, halved vertically, and sliced super-thin (but not peeled)
• 1 Tbsp. lemon juice
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
• 1/4 tsp. salt

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 415 degrees.

Place puffed pastry rectangles onto a baking pan that’s been sprayed with nonstick spray. (To get added pastry height/thickness, you can also layer two rectangles on top of each other.) Add brown sugar, cinnamon, lemon juice and salt to apples. (Note: lemon juice helps to prevent cut apple wedges from browning.) Stir to combine. Allow to sit for a few minutes.

Arrange apple slices on the pastry rectangles in a straight line, overlapping as you go. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, or until pastry is puffed and golden brown.

Remove from pan immediately and place on a serving platter. Serve plain, with caramel topping, whipped cream, ice cream, or a sprinkling of powdered sugar.
