🇫🇷 France recipe

Tarte Tatin

Legend has it that this famous upside-down apple tart was created by accident at the Hotel Tatin in Lamotte-Beuvron. Apples are caramelized in butter and sugar until deeply golden and jammy, then topped with a round of pastry and baked. When inverted, the glistening, amber apples sit atop a crisp, buttery crust.
