Individual Tarte Tatin



























AKA: French apple upside down tart. The bottom photo is with espresso chocolate ice cream.
If you tell a frenchman that this is an upside down apple tarte he would probably kill you and rightly so.
This is a classic of french cuisine and not easy to make. This is not a perfect example of it but it follows the same principals. I didn't expect it to turn out so well but I will make it again and document it. Very tasty dessert indeed.

I've always thought that this dish is the most appealing of all apple pies, and with vanilla ice cream, a marriage made in heaven.
