Is there something better than caramel, apple and puff pastry all together? This Individual Tarte Tatin Recipe is so easy to make and the results are delicious! Imagine serving them at a dinner party. They will surely be the highlight of the evening.

Tarte Tartin is simply upside down apple tart. I make a small version to give you a different presentation. I think these are way cuter and if you serve them warm with a mound of cream on top you’ll be in heaven.

For this Individual Tarte Tatin Recipe I used Granny Smith apples which are tart and have great texture. Plus they won’t dissolve while cooking. Since there’s caramel on top, the sweetness will give the Tart a very nice rounded flavor. The puff pastry is delicate and crunchy at the same time. I guess you can say that this dessert is very droolworthy.

If you’re a novice in baking, then this dessert is for you! There’s no kneading, rolling or whipping involved. The only difficult part not burning the caramel. If you don’t like apples you can substitute for pears, peaches or nectarines. You can also throw in some cherries if you please.

Here’s a step by step guide of my Individual Tarte Tatin Recipe:

Make your caramel and add some butter. Pour the caramel on the crevices of muffin tins. Add cut up apples and bake for 30 minutes. Add puff pastry circles and bake for 20 minutes more. That’s it! When assembling the apples just make sure that you are putting them in a nice shape, that way when you flip them over it will make a nice presentation.

 Tarte Tatins can be served cold or warm. If you want to serve them warm you can still make them a in advance. Just bake for a few minutes before serving. I use a muffin tin for these, avoid using the mini muffin pan since it will be harder to make a nice shape.

  11. Remove from oven, let them cool for 2-3 minutes and unmold onto a plate
  12. Enjoy!

    Heya! I love the recipe but I’m thinking of making bite sized ones in a smaller muffin tin, have any recommendations for how long to keep them in the oven?

      Hi Jeff, it’s the standard muffin pan (not the mini) – Hope that helps!
