Notes
- Tips:
- Puff pastry defrosts quickly, so if you live in a warmer climate you may need to pop it back into the refrigerator until ready to use.
- Don't slice the apples too thinly. About ¼ inch thickness is perfect. You want them to get tender but not turn mushy.
- This apple tart recipe comes together very quickly, so have all of your ingredients prepped and measured first.
- Mix at least two varieties of apples. I always like to mix my apples for baking for optimal taste.
