Ingredients

• 1 sheet puff pastry sheet
• 3 medium apples
• 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons apricot jam
• 1 teaspoon water

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

Remove the puff pastry sheet from the freezer and let it thaw according to the package instructions (usually about 5-10 minutes).

Step 3

While the pastry is thawing, peel, core, and thinly slice the apples. Place the slices in a bowl and toss with lemon juice to prevent browning.

Step 4

Roll out the puff pastry sheet onto the lined baking sheet. Optionally, create a small border by folding in all the edges of the pastry by about half an inch.

Step 5

Arrange the apple slices in overlapping rows or a spiral pattern on top of the puff pastry, leaving the border uncovered.

Step 6

In a small bowl, mix the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the apples.

Step 7

Dot the apples with small pieces of unsalted butter for extra richness.

Step 8

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

Step 9

While the tart bakes, warm the apricot jam and water in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring until smooth to create a glaze.

Step 10

Once the tart is out of the oven, brush the warm apricot glaze over the apples to give them a glossy finish.

Step 11

Allow the tart to cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature, optionally paired with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
