Ingredients

6 apples
1 sheet puff pastry sheet about Ø 14 in - 35 cm in diameter
½ cup honey
1 tablespoon chopped walnuts or pistachio

US Customary - Metric

Instructions

Warm up the oven to 180∘C (355∘F).
Unroll the pastry sheet (puff or shortcrust) directly onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Peel the apples, then use a vegetable peeler or a mandoline slicer to cut them into very thin, uniform slices. Precision is not needed here—just focus on thinness.
Spread the thin apple slices over the entire surface of the pastry dough, layering them closely to cover the dough completely.
Drizzle the liquid honey over the apples. Add more if you prefer a sweeter tart, ensuring the slices are lightly coated.
If using, sprinkle the crushed nuts (walnuts or pistachios) evenly over the top of the apples.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, or follow the time specified on your pastry dough instructions until the crust is golden brown and the apples are caramelized.
Remove the tart from the oven and let it rest on the baking sheet for 10 minutes. Then, cut the tart into individual slices or squares.
You can serve it warm or at room temperature
