Ingredients

• 1 sheet puff pastry sheet
• 3 medium apples
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 2 tablespoons honey or apricot jam
• 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Lightly dust your work surface with flour, then roll out the puff pastry sheet to about 10x12 inches. Transfer the pastry to the prepared baking sheet.

Step 3

Using a paring knife, gently score a 1-inch border around the edges of the pastry, being careful not to cut through completely. Prick the center area inside the border with a fork to prevent it from puffing up too much.

Step 4

Peel, core, and thinly slice the apples. Arrange the apple slices in overlapping rows within the scored border of the puff pastry.

Step 5

In a small bowl, mix together the sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the apples.

Step 6

Dot the apples with small pieces of butter, distributing them evenly across the tart.

Step 7

Bake the tart in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the apples are tender.

Step 8

While the tart is baking, warm the honey or apricot jam in a small saucepan (or microwave it for a few seconds) until it becomes slightly runny.

Step 9

When the tart comes out of the oven, lightly brush the apples with the warmed honey or jam to give them a glossy finish.

Step 10

Allow the tart to cool slightly before slicing and serving warm or at room temperature.
