Puff pastry apples caramel

The pie turns out delicious, beautiful, unusual and memorable. And with all these advantages, cooking it is easier than ever! But you need to prepare in advance the form in which the pie will be prepared. It should be a heat-resistant container (frying pan or baking dish), which can be put both on fire and in the oven. So, everything is prepared and you can start baking a pie.

First of all, we take the dough out of the freezer and leave it to defrost.

Apples are washed under warm running water, you can even rub them with a sponge to remove the layer of preservative that is usually used to treat fruits in stores. After that, peel the apples, removing the peel with a thin layer. Cut the apples in half and cut out the cores, and after half the apples cut into thin slices.

We transfer the slices into a deep container, pour them with lemon juice and sprinkle with a small amount of sugar, as well as ground cinnamon. Mix the apples well and leave them alone for now. Thanks to lemon juice, they will retain a beautiful color and will not darken.

We put the form (frying pan) on a high heat, put butter in it and pour granulated sugar. We prepare the caramel, stirring it from time to time with a wooden spoon or a spatula so that the sugar does not burn. It should become a beautiful brownish color - caramel.

Now turn down the heat to moderate and start putting the apple slices into the mold. We put them carefully, slightly overlapping each other. Cook the apples in caramel for at least 15 minutes. At the same time, do not mix the caramel and apples.

At this time, we lay out the thawed dough on the work surface and cut out a circle. The diameter of the circle should be slightly larger than the shape. We spread this circle of dough on apples. We do this very carefully - the apples should not move from their place. The edges of the dough are rolled up, if possible, between the apples and the walls of the pan. Using a fork, we make several punctures in the dough.

Put the mold (frying pan) in a preheated 180 degree oven for half an hour. When this time has passed, we remove the mold from the oven. Let the cake cool down a little in the form - 5 minutes will be enough, during which the caramel will harden a little. But not longer, otherwise the pie will no longer be possible to turn over - it will simply stick to the bottom of the mold.

We remove the pie from the pan, covering it with a plate suitable in diameter. If it didn't work out to turn the pie over carefully and a couple of slices remained at the bottom of the mold, just transfer them with a spoon or fork.

Let the cake cool down a little (or completely - to your taste) and serve it to the table.

Have a sweet tea party!
