Once cooked the bottom of this torte almost caramelized. Just an extra dimension of flavor. Use a sharp knife to cut your serving for the nicest presentation. Serve warm right out of the oven. Another treat for your sweets.

Steps

30 mins

1

First thaw puffed pastry in refrigerator overnight. You want to keep this pastry cold until just needed.
2

Using a mandolin slicer, slice apples thin.
3

You may core apples before slicing but I find the small organic apples have such small seeds, that once sliced I just remove them.
4

In a bowl mix all other filling ingredients, toss, then add apples and toss again.
5

Remove pastry from refrigerator and roll out to 1/8 " thickness lengthwise.
6

On a parchment lined baking tray, place apples in a row overlapping each other. Continue to cover pastry. Leave 1/4" edge without apples.
7

If you have extra apples just place in a nice pattern over initial layer. Brush edges with cream.
8

Bake in a preheated 425°F fahrenheit oven for 20 minutes. Edges should be a nice golden brown.
9

Let cool 5 minutes before transferring to serving platter.
10

Top with fresh whipped cream or next to a delicious scoop of vanilla ice cream.
