Apple tart with caramel
Description
The recipe won’t take much time. When turning the hot dessert onto a plate, be careful not to burn yourself with the hot caramel! But you need to do this exactly when you take the pie out of the oven, otherwise the caramel will harden later and you won’t be able to turn the pie over.

Then remove the pan from the oven and cover it with a plate; very carefully invert it upside down so that the tart falls onto the plate with the pastry side down. Proceed very carefully, as the caramel is hot and can cause burns!
