Easy French Apple Tart - Tarte Fine aux Pommes
Recipe video above. It’s hard to believe a proper French tart can be this simple and this good - but here we are! This one comes straight from JB (yes, our actual French chef), who whipped it up like it was no big deal. Sometimes, his idea of "no big deal" is out of reach for regular folk like me. But for once, it isn't at all! 😂The base is extra crisp thanks to a little sprinkle of sugar, and the apple is only lightly sweetened, that's all it needs. Use any type of apple you like, but my favourite is gala (we tried quite a few). And while we can all pretend ice cream is optional, it isn't really. :)
