Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Prepare apples: Toss the apple slices with sugar and cinnamon in a bowl.
Assemble: Unfold the puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface. Arrange the apple slices in a single layer over the puff pastry, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
Fold and seal: Fold the edges of the puff pastry over the apples to create a rustic tart. Press down gently to seal.
Brush with butter: Brush the top of the tart with melted butter.
Bake: Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the apples are tender.
Serve: Let the tart cool slightly before serving. You can enjoy it warm or at room temperature.
Tips & Variations:
Add a touch of sweetness: Sprinkle a little brown sugar over the apples before baking.
Spice things up: Add a pinch of nutmeg or ginger to the apple mixture.
Make it savory: Use savory ingredients like caramelized onions, goat cheese, or herbs for a savory twist.
Top it off: Garnish with a dollop of whipped cream, a scoop of ice cream, or a drizzle of honey.
This simple recipe allows the natural sweetness of the apples to shine through. Enjoy your delicious and quick apple puff pastry tart!
