These delightful tartlets combine the flavors of caramel, apples, and spices, all nestled in a flaky puff pastry crust. The addition of cajeta, a rich Mexican caramel sauce, adds a decadent twist to this classic dessert. Perfect for any occasion!
Ingredients: 1 sheet of puff pastry, thawed. 2 medium apples, cored and thinly sliced. 1/4 cup cajeta Mexican caramel sauce. 1 tbsp lemon juice. 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon. 1/8 tsp ground nutmeg. 1 egg, beaten for egg wash.
Instructions: Preheat oven to 375F 190C. Roll out the puff pastry and cut it into 6 equal squares. Place the pastry squares on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. In a bowl, toss the apple slices with lemon juice, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Arrange the seasoned apple slices on top of each puff pastry square, leaving a border around the edges. Drizzle 1-2 teaspoons of cajeta over the apple slices on each tartlet. Fold the edges of the pastry squares over the apples, creating a rustic tartlet shape. Brush the edges of the pastry with the beaten egg. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the apples are tender. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Optional: Drizzle additional cajeta over the tartlets before serving.
