Apple Frangipane Tart

Quick snap of my first home-made tart ever. An apple frangipane tart. I made my own sweet shortcut pastry and frangipane filling. It decided to top the tart with some sliced apples (I'm not quite an expert on placing fruits/ decorating yet but we'll get there *fingers crossed*). It turned out well considering it was my first. I will definitely make my own tart in the future. Though it is quite time consuming to make, I think it's worth it.

 

Deconstructed apple custard tart

I wanted to try something. I wanted to make an apple pie since ages. This has been laying at the back of my mind. Sadly I was not willing to make a whole pie because I was sure there would be leftovers. So the idea of making a deconstructed tart hooked me. This is so easy to make. Apple filling with custard. There is that crunchiness from the tart, the acidity and sweetness from the caramelised apple and creaminess from the custard. A perfect combination.
