This Apple Tarte Tatin recipe features a golden-brown caramelized apple topping over a flaky pastry crust. Itā€™s impressive enough for a special occasion but easy enough to make for a weeknight treat.

3 cups KrusteazĀ® Buttermilk Pancake Mix
5 Apples, Granny Smith or another firm tart apple
1 stick Butter (113 grams)
1 cup Granulated sugar
Ā½ tsp Flake salt
2 tsp Cinnamon
2 cups Cold water
Topping Vanilla ice cream or whipped cream
STEP 1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

STEP 2

Peel and core the apples, slice into quarters.

STEP 3

In an oven proof 10ā€ skillet, add your butter and sugar. Allow to melt over medium to medium-high heat. Mixture will begin to slightly bubble ~1-2 minutes.

STEP 4

Place your quartered apples to the butter sugar mixture (donā€™t worry about placement yet.)

STEP 5

Sprinkle with your flake salt, a little more salt to get a salted caramel if you choose.

STEP 6

Allow the apples to cook and caramelize for about 12-15 minutes, stir the apples every few minutes to cook evenly. Syrup should thicken and turn a light amber color.

STEP 7

While apples are cooking, mix your Krusteaz Buttermilk Pancake mix. In a bowl, add you mix, water and cinnamon. Whisk and until just blended. Do not overmix. Let batter stand for at least 2 minutes.

STEP 8

Once your apples and caramel are cooked ā€“ remove from heat and position your apples in a fanned style (this will be the top of your dessert.)

STEP 9

Pour your Krusteaz batter over the top to cover apples completely.

STEP 10

Place your ovenproof skillet on a parchment lined sheet pan (just in case any drips).

STEP 11

Bake for 25-30 minutes in middle of oven, until pancake mixture is cooked through fully.

STEP 12

Remove from oven, let cool for 10 minutes.

STEP 13

After 10 minutes, run a knife along the edges. Place a serving plate on top of your skillet and carefully flip the Tarte Tatin. Spoon any caramel sauce back on and reposition any apples.

STEP 14

Top with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream of you desire. Enjoy. Refrigerate after 1st day and enjoy for 5 days.
