Time 1h

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 -8 large cooking apples
2 tablespoons lemon juice
6 tablespoons sugar
1/4 cup butter
1 frozen pie shell, slightly thawed or
1/2 packaged puff pastry, thawed
ice cream, whipped cream or cheese (optional)

Steps:

  • Peel, core& quarter apples; toss with lemon juice& 2 tbsp of the sugar.
  • Let stand& toss again so that sugar is completely dissolved.
  • In a 10 inch ovenproof skillet, melt butter over medium heat.
  • Sprinkle remaining sugar evenly over butter.
  • Stir just until sugar is dissolved& remove from heat.
  • Place as many apple wedges as you can into the pan.
  • They will actually stand on end but thats OK since they will shrink as the tarte cooks.
  • Place the pan back over medium heat and cook the apples for 20- 25 minutes or until syrup has formed a thickened caramel.
  • Cool slightly.
  • Gently roll out pie shell (or puff pastry) to fit slightly larger than the pan.
  • Place over the pan, trim edges& bake in preheated 400F oven for 20- 25 minutes or until pastry is crisp.
  • Turn out onto a large platter& serve.
