The Cooking Chronicles: Cheat's Apple Tarts

I still had a half a package of puff pastry left over from Tuesday, so decided to give Donna Hay's Instant Cook recipe for Cheat's Apple Tarts a go.

Like the Strawberry-Brie Bites, this was a very quick assemble-and-bake recipe, great for those who are time-pressed to create a dessert. Learning from my Rustic Apple Tart lesson, I used sweeter gala apples this time around, and it did create a less sour, juicier filling. The melted butter, brushed over the puff pastry before lining the muffin tins, provided additional flavour as well. And while I didn't have any on hand, vanilla bean ice cream would have rounded out the tart nicely.

This is another recipe I will definitely keep close in the event of a dessert emergency!
