Tarte Tatin with Caramel Sauce

Tarte Tatin with Caramel Sauce is a classic French dessert known for its deliciously caramelized apples and buttery pastry crust. This upside-down tart is made by cooking apples in sugar and butter until they are soft and golden, creating a rich caramel sauce. The apples are then topped with a layer of pastry dough and baked until the crust is golden and crisp.
After baking, the tart is inverted onto a plate, revealing the beautifully caramelized apples on top. The tart is often served warm with a drizzle of extra caramel sauce for added sweetness and flavor. This dessert is celebrated for its rustic charm and the perfect balance of sweet, buttery, and tart flavors. It is an ideal treat for those who love classic French pastries and the comforting taste of caramelized fruit.
