Description

This apple tart is made with just six simple ingredients and is perfect for any festive gathering! It has a light, buttery crust, sweet apples and a healthy sprinkle of cinnamon sugar topping.

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 box Puff Pastry Sheets, thawed
  • 2 Honeycrisp Apples, thinly sliced
  • 1 Egg
  • 1/3 cup Coconut Sugar or Florida Crystals Organic Raw Cane Sugar
  • 1/2 tsp Ground Cinnamon (slightly heaping)
  • 5-Ingredient Vegan Caramel Sauce, for drizzling

Instructions

  1. Let pastry thaw: Thaw one puff pastry sheet according to package directions; about 30-35 minutes.
  2. Make the topping: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. To a small bowl, add the sugar and cinnamon and stir to combine. 
  3. Pastry: Gently roll out the puff pastry with a rolling pin, and add to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Prick the dough with a fork to prevent it from bubbling up during cooking.
  4. Egg: Whisk the egg together and lightly brush it all over the pastry. 
  5. Cinnamon Sugar: Sprinkle most of the cinnamon sugar topping all over the puff pastry. 
  6. Apples: Top with the apples in whatever pattern you desire.
  7. Cinnamon Sugar: Sprinkle the remaining cinnamon sugar topping all over the apples. 
  8. Bake: Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed up. 
  9. Cut: Remove from the oven and cut into squares. Serve immediately. 
  10. Optional but highly recommended: Drizzle some vegan caramel sauce on top.

Equipment

Notes

  • Apples/Puff Pastry: Use the lines in the pastry as a guide to organize the apples. Be sure to also prick the dough with a fork to prevent it from bubbling up during cooking. (If this step is skipped, the dough puffs up and some of the toppings slide off).
  • Sugar: Feel free to use either cane sugar or coconut sugar. Coconut sugar is unrefined and is the healthier option. However, both work well for this recipe.
  • Cook Time: Cook for less time if you desire less of a crunch. If you want more of a crunch cook for longer.
  • Servings: Makes 6 large servings or 12 smaller servings.
