Cinnamon Apple Tarts
Hey there! Autumn is finally here and it's the perfect time to snuggle under a cozy blanket, sip on hot chocolate, indulge in apple crumble with custard, and light up some cinnamon-scented candles. Does that make you hungry? Oh apples pies mmm...
Speaking of baking, we've got an exciting recipe for you this week! The dark mornings can be a bit of a drag, but we're still trying to stay active while also indulging in some comforting treats. We know sugar isn't the healthiest, but this time of year our bodies crave it, so why not treat yourself to some delicious cinnamon apple tarts? They're easy to make and perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth. Plus, the cinnamon kick gives them that perfect autumnal flavor. We have paired them with some creamy custard and a mouth-watering glaze! Puff pastry is a must for these delicious Apple Tarts. We used gluten-free pastry for this recipe, but any pastry will do. The cinnamon sugar topping is also super easy to make and takes these apple tarts to the next level. And don't worry about the measurements - this recipe is in cups since our scales were delayed.
