a winter treat: apple tart for one



There is nothing better than a sweet treat fresh from the oven on a cold rainy day.. Here is a favourite which takes only minutes, and there is no risk of over indulging.. 

Apple tart for one:

1/2 sheet of pampas puff pastry 
one apple 
brown sugar
ground cinnamon 

preheat oven to 200℃
peel the apple, cut into quarters and then slice each finely 
cover the pastry rectangle with a thin layer of brown sugar and sprinkle over the cinnamon - keeping one centimeter from the edge sugar-free
cover the sugar and cinnamon with apple slices - again keeping the edge clear (you won't use all the apple, so snack on left over slices while waiting for the tart to cook..) 
place on a baking tray covered in baking paper

cook for about 10-15 minutes until the pastry has puffed and browned

serve with ice cream - Maggie Beer's burnt fig jam is perfect !
