Ingredients
  

  • 6-8 medium-sized apples peeled and cored
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 sheet of puff pastry thawed
  • 1 egg beaten
  • Whipped cream or vanilla ice cream optional

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • In a 9-inch oven-safe skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the sugar and stir until it dissolves and turns golden brown.
  • Add the apples to the skillet, arranging them in a circular pattern. Cook for 10-15 minutes, until the apples are tender and caramelized.
  • Remove the skillet from the heat and let it cool for a few minutes.
  • Roll out the puff pastry on a floured surface to fit the size of the skillet. Place the pastry over the apples, tucking the edges down around the apples.
  • Brush the beaten egg over the pastry.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the pastry is golden brown and puffed.
  • Remove the skillet from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes.
  • Place a large plate over the skillet and carefully flip the skillet over to release the pie onto the plate.
  • Serve warm with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream, if desired.
