Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Roll out the puff pastry and cut it into a circle slightly larger than the size of your skillet.
  3. Peel and core the apples, then cut them into halves or quarters.
  4. Melt the butter in a 10-inch ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Add the sugar, vanilla extract, and salt. Stir until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture starts to bubble.
  5. Arrange the apple halves or quarters in the skillet, rounded side down, in a circular pattern.
  6. Cook the apples for about 15 minutes, until they start to soften and release their juices.
  7. Remove the skillet from the heat and carefully place the puff pastry circle on top of the apples, tucking the edges down around the apples.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for about 35-40 minutes, until the pastry is golden brown and crisp.
  9. Remove the skillet from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes.
  10. Place a serving plate on top of the skillet and carefully flip the tart onto the plate.
  11. Serve warm and enjoy!
