1
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2
Roll Out the Puff Pastry
Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out the puff pastry sheet into a circle that fits your tart pan. Transfer the pastry to the pan, pressing it into the edges.
3
Prepare for Baking
Trim any excess pastry from the edges and prick the bottom with a fork to prevent bubbling. Brush the edges with the beaten egg for a golden finish.

4
Prepare the Apples
Peel, core, and slice the apples into thin wedges. Toss them with lemon juice in a bowl to prevent browning.
5
Melt the Butter
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.
6
Add the Apples and Sugar
Once the butter is melted, add the sliced apples, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Stir to coat the apples evenly.
7
Caramelize the Apples
Cook the mixture for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apples are tender and caramelized. Remove from heat.

8
Fill the Tart
Pour the caramelized apple mixture into the prepared puff pastry shell, spreading it evenly.
9
Bake the Tart
Place the tart in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed up.
10
Cool and Serve
Remove the tart from the oven and let it cool slightly. Serve warm with scoops of vanilla ice cream on top.
