Apple Tart Tatin With Goat Cheese Timbale And Green Apple Sorbet Napoleon Recipes

GOAT CHEESE AND TART APPLE ON FRENCH BREAD APPETIZER

Steps:

• Cut the baguette in half lengthwise.
• Drizzle the cream onto both halves of the bread.
• Peel, core and thinly slice the apple.
• Spread the apple slices on the bread.
• Spread the goat cheese over the apple slices. (Depending on the age of the goat cheese, you may have better luck putting the cheese on in slices.).
• Sprinkle with pepper and Herbes de Provence.
• Bake in 350 oven for about 10 minutes, then broil until cheese browns slightly.
• Cut each half into about 12 pieces. (These can be assembled individually on precut bread slices if you prefer.).

APPLE TARTE TATIN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Coat a 10-inch oven-proof skillet with butter. Sprinkle sugar evenly over the top of the butter.
• Place apple quarters, rounded sides down, on top of the butter and sugar in a circular pattern.
• Place skillet over medium-high heat and cook until butter melts and sugar dissolves and begins to caramelize. Continue to cook until apples soften and caramel begins to brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from heat.
• Sprinkle work surface with flour and roll pie dough into an 11-inch circle. Pinch edge to create a ruffle around crust.
• Place crust on top of apples and tuck in edges around apples.
• Bake in the preheated oven until crust is golden brown, about 20 minutes. Allow to cool for 5 minutes. Place a plate over the top of the pan and carefully invert to release tarte from the pan. Scrape any remaining apples stuck to the pan back on top of crust.
