  3. 1/4 cup brown sugar
  4. A pinch of salt

Delicious and quick and easy!

This was so easy and delicious! I have this great Apple Pie spice from Penzey’s so I tossed some in the mixture to coat the apples. I used Trader Joe’s Fleur de Sel caramel sauce for the drizzle. I’m not a dessert person, but I could not stop eating these scrumptious little treats! It’s so easy to double, so I did! Yum!

So easy! Turned out gorgeous and everyone LOVED it. I will say that three apples made four tarts, so I used up both of the puff pastry sheets. I did thaw the pastry first (haha) and use the pecans and a tiny amount of caramel topping. Oh so delicious! I cut my apples really thin, so maybe that is why three apples made four tarts? Not sad. So good.

This was delicious … but the recipe doesn’t match the video. And I didn’t use the cooking spray because I didn’t see directions to do so, just listen in the ingredients.

Delicious.. I used a mandolin for the apples and added only 1/3 cup of sugar. Added a sprinkle of cinnamon and topped with a drizzle of caramel sauce. Excellent!

This recipe is delicious. However we cut our brown sugar tohalf a cup. Also, we put cinnamon on ours.

The apple dessert was really good but for my second patch, I made some changes. First, I removed/peeled the apples. Ree doesn’t peel the skin from the apples and I didn’t like the texture of the skin from my first patch I made. Second, I omitted the pecans. It isn’t necessary to have pecans on it. Third, at 425, my first patch burned the corners. So second batch I set oven to preheat to 425, and after putting the apple dessert in, I immediately turned oven down to 375 and baked for about 15 -20 minutes–checking it several times throughout baking. Delicious! Thank you Mrs. Drummond for the quick and easy recipe.

I need more practice making this, but it still turned out pretty well. Attempt #2 soon to come.
