Tatin Tartlets

Puff pastry

Place the flour, butter cut in cubes and salt in your food processor bowl.

Start whisking at low speed (2 on a scale from 1 to 6) and pour the water.

Keep on whisking until the flour is combined with water, you still need to have large cubes of butter.

Place the pastry on a floured work plan.

Spread the pastry with your rolling pin and make a rectangle (15 cm by 45 cm).

Fold the right third of the pastry, then the left third. You should have a square.

Make a quarter turn. Make a rectangle (15 cm by 45 cm). Fold the right third of the pastry, then the left third.

Start again twice.

Set aside in your fridge.

Caramel

Cook at medium heat 30 g of water, 120 g of sugar and 35 g of glucose until you get an orange/red color.

Pour immediately this caramel in a gratin dish.

Preheat your oven at 170 C / 340 F degrees.

Syrup

Heat 30 g of water with 40 g of sugar. Once it starts boiling, remove from the heat.

Add the lemon juice, the vanilla and salt flower. Add the 30 g of butter and whip.

Tatin

Peel and cut the apples in small cubes.

Place the apple pieces on the caramel.

Pour this syrup on top of the apples.

Bake 40 minutes.

At the end of baking, leave to cool down in the dish.

In the meantime, spread your puff pastry and make 6 discs, 7 to 8 cm diameter.

Cook them for 18 to 20 minutes at 180 C / 355 F degrees.

When the apples are at room temperature, preheat your oven at 170 C / 340 F degrees.

Mix the cubes, cover the dish with aluminium foil and cook for 25 minutes.

Soak your gelatine sheets into cold water.

When removing the apples from the oven, add the drained gelatine and combine.

Pour into mini-savarin and half-sphere molds.

Set aside in your freezer for 2 hours.
