This is really easy! You weren't kidding. My first attempt at this kind of dessert and I was so pleased with the results. My apples started to brown a bit after 45 minutes so I covered them with foil (as suggested) and baked for another 20 minutes or so before adding the puff pastry. I did sprinkle with about 1 tsp of cinnamon and I will always do that. I had a little with some french vanilla ice cream, yumm!!

You bet your sweet bippy this is the easy version! I hate rolling pastry, why oh why didn't I ever think of using puff pastry, huh? I used a round silicone cake form and the tarte just came out easily and gorgeously (is that a word?). I only made tarte tatin once before and hated working with pastry so I never made it again. Susiecat, thanks so much for this simple innovation!

Wow, this is an impressive dessert! Beautiful and delicious! I sprinkled a bit of cinnamon on the apples before putting them in to bake. I had a bit of a disaster, totally my fault, but I had used a springform pan and the sugar syrup ended up dripping on to the floor of my oven which then filled the house up with smoke. Next time I'll use a cookie sheet underneath :oops: Thanks for a great recipe Susiecat too! Made for Potluck Tag, please see my rating system as I rate tougher than most.

Excellent shortcut--though no one seeing it or eating it would guess. My apples (Granny Smith) carmelized beautifully and the tart popped right out onto a serving plate. Lovely scent of apples and cinnamon. Thanks, susie!

Oh my! This is so good. I used half white sugar and half brown sugar. I also sprinkled the apples with cinnamon. It wouldn't come out of the pan as easily for me as for the others. Since I changed the type of sugar used I thought that might be why. I was able to slice the pie in the conventional way and it came out quite nicely that way.

This was excellent. It would have been helpful to know how long to let it set before inverting it, though, because I think I turned mine a bit too quickly.

So good and so easy. My only mistake was not having any ice cream to go with it!! I'll definitely be making again now that apple season has arrived!!

Thanks for such delicious and easy recipe. I did not think at first that it will come this good. I loved it and so did my family. I used the refrrigerated pie crust from Walmart. Thanks again. I'm making it again tomorrow for a friend I

I made this for a dinner party last night and it was incredible. It looked stunning and tasted even better. There wasn't a single crumb leftover. The best apple dessert I've ever made! Thank you.

As my children would say... easy-peasy-lemon-squeezy. And I say Delicious! Thanks for a keeper.
