Apple tart Tatin on sour cream dough is a true embodiment of French culinary elegance. This dessert came about by chance: according to legend, the Tatin sisters once flipped a pie and baked it upside down, turning it into a culinary masterpiece. In this version, the sour cream dough gives the pastry a special softness and tenderness, perfectly complementing the caramelized apples soaked in butter and sugar. A warm, melt-in-your-mouth piece of tart Tatin captivates with its depth of flavor—a balance of sweetness, creamy texture, and fruity acidity. The dessert is traditionally served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or delicate cream, creating true delight for gourmets. This tart is the perfect ending to a cozy dinner or an elegant treat for tea.
