Layer an Apple Tart

Video Transcript

"All right, now I'm just layering up the tart. This pastry dough, I didn't have to explain it because I didn't make it. I just bought it. It's puff pastry which I defrosted overnight in the fridge and I have just rolled it out on parchment paper which we used for the shortbread of course. Now I'm just taking those apple layers and sort of fanning them one on top of the other. You can be sort of particular about this as much as you want. You can get really finicky and do them in three straight rows if you want to. I'm just sort of putting them on as I'd like to. Another thing, if you didn't even want to spend the time to place them one piece at a time, you could just as easily, and you can take the smaller pieces and just nuzzle them in there in the larger gaps. The small pieces you can just kind of tuck and fill in as you see fit. It's a rustic apple tart right, so it's not going to be needing to be perfect unless you want it to be. I'm just going to keep on layering these up until I get to the end of the puff pastry. If you didn't even want to take the time to place them one at a time, fore go that step altogether, you could easily do so. The way you do that is to chop the apple like you would if you were making a pie. Roll out the puff pastry and just scoop it all together in the center. Just dump it into a mound, the apple mixture into a mound on top of the puff pastry. That's another great easy thing you can do with puff pastry."
