After recently becoming addicted to ‘The Great British Bake Off,’ we felt a need to diversify from cupcakes. Today’s experiment was a Tarte Tatin, adapted from one of the recipes used on the show. We used apples instead of bananas…mostly because there were apples at my house.
The recipe used can be found here:

Take note that the caramel is made at a low heat, unlike most other caramel recipes. Making it at a medium – high heat leads to a few issues!
Also, if you use apples, a sour variety would probably work best; the tart is already quite sweet, so using normal apples is a bit much.
