Flaky Apple Tart... If you are still happily wadin Flaky Apple Tart... If you are still happily wading through apples (as I am), this is a fabulously quick and easy dessert. And it pairs deliciously with ice cream & dry cider! 🍎🍺 

✨ Puff Pastry Apple Tart ✨
Flaky pastry, juicy apples that caramelise as they bake, and all the warm spices.
Ingredients
• 1 sheet frozen puff pastry
• 4–5 medium apples, peeled + sliced
• 3 tbsp brown sugar
• 2 tbsp lemon juice
• ½ tsp vanilla
• Pinch of salt
• Pinch of cinnamon + nutmeg (or a good dusting if you like it strong)
• 2 tbsp butter, cubed
• 1 egg (for egg wash)
• Apricot jam
Method
Heat oven to 180°C and line a tray with parchment.
Let puff pastry thaw, then roll it out on a floured surface and transfer to the tray.
Score a border around the edge - about 1/4 inch from the edge (don’t cut all the way through).
Mix apples with sugar, lemon, vanilla, salt + spices.
Warm a little apricot jam and spread it over the pastry.
Arrange apples on top (leave the juices behind). Layer in a pattern and dot with the butter.
Brush edges with egg wash and bake 20–30 min, until golden & tender.
Brush with more warm apricot jam.
Serve warm with ice cream or cream. ✨

Mine’s a white wine! The more the merrier given Mine’s a white wine! The more the merrier given the mountain of editing ahead of me. I wonder if a wee swagger of abv will help with the creative visual experience - or to be more realistic, the dull detailed. removal of dust and smudges.

Soups that have warmed my little toes. Possibly th Soups that have warmed my little toes. Possibly the best part of chilly days, is the excuse to consume vast quantities of spoon-standing up, piping hot soups. Packed full of veg, pulses and piled high with pumpkin seeds, croutons, mustard seeds and all manner of random additions, these nutritious feasts are saviours 🔥
