I may be slightly obsessed with The Pioneer Woman. I mean, I’ve always liked her and her recipes are delicious, but lately I can’t get enough. I kind of want to be her, minus having to live on a ranch.
Remember the onion straws she inspired me to make? Well, I also happened to make my own version of another one of her recipes, an apple tart. I added and omitted some ingredients to make them my own and since J ate an entire tart by himself, I would say they turned out pretty well.
What You Meed:
-1 package of puff pastry
-3 large Granny Smith apples
-1 cup brown sugar
-1 tbsp cinnamon
-1/2 cup crushed pecans
-Caramel syrup for drizzling
What To Do:
1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Begin by de-seeding and thinly slicing 3 large Granny Smith apples.

2. Place the apple slices into a large bowl.
3. Add the brown sugar and cinnamon and coat the apples evenly.
4. On a greased baking sheet or aluminum foil to avoid cleanup, cut 1 sheet of the puff pastry into 2 halves. Mine looked a little funky because the dough stuck together.
5. Place the apples in the middle of the puff pastry, slightly overlapping each other.
6. Bake on 425 degrees for 20 minutes or until golden brown. It’s okay if a little of the sugar leaks out of the pastry while it bakes.
7. Drizzle with caramel sauce and top with crushed pecans.
Serve warm and enjoy!
