I just made this for the first time the other day. It was awesome! So simple and tasty, it's a favorite now.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

We loved this simple apple tart. With just one apple and a few ingredients, you can create a beautiful fall dessert. The puff pastry is flaky and crisp. There's just enough sugar on the apples to add a touch of sweetness. The spices are perfectly balanced and taste like fall. This apple tart is a light dessert that's not overly sweet. If you want to add sweetness, drizzle with caramel and/or serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

  • Oven preheating to 350 degrees.
    1
    Preheat oven to 350.
  • Thinly sliced apples in a bowl.
    2
    Cut the apple into very thin slices, remove the cores, and put them into a bowl. Add spices and sugars, and stir until all apple slices are coated with the mixture.
  • Coated apples on a piece of puff pastry.
    3
    Lay puff pastry sheet flat onto a baking sheet. Top with apple mixture and spread out to cover all but the edges.
  • Apple tart baking in the oven.
