I was saving this recipe for later in the week but I just couldn’t keep it to myself any longer! And when I say any longer you should know that I made these this afternoon. Yeah, I’m terrible at keeping secrets. I’ve had a sheet of puff pastry hanging out in my freezer for months and I really needed to use it. Seeing that honeycrisps are out right now, there’s no time that’s more perfect to put the two together!
These apple tarts are SO simple to make and are insanely delicious! They won’t last long- trust me my hubby is polishing them off as we speak!
Simple Apple Tarts
(Print this recipe!)
Ingredients:
1 sheet of puff pastry (I used the Pepperidge Farm- you can find them in the freezer section by the frozen pie crusts)
1 apple- peeled, cored and sliced extremely thin
3 T brown sugar
1-2 T earth balance
cinnamon for sprinkling on top
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Unfold puff pastry onto a cutting board and let it thaw enough for you to be able to work with it.
Slice it into thirds lengthwise down the seams, then slice each third into three pieces for nine total pieces.
Place 4-5 of your very thin apple slices on each piece, leaving a little bit of room at the edges so that it puffs up and turns an amazing shade of golden brown..
Place a few tiny pieces of your earth balance on top of each piece and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of the brown sugar.
Sprinkle with cinnamon.
Bake at 350 F for 10 minutes.
Enjoy as is, dusted with a little powdered sugar, or with a big scoop of vanilla ice cream!
Delicious- and perfect for all of those fall apples!
