For this easy apple tartlet, you don't need to make any pastry dough, just a few slices of toast. I made 2 different shapes of apple tartlets with toast. You can try 2 flavors: One is the outer crispy toast wrapped with caramelized apple. The other is the flaky toast with caramelized apple slices. You can eat the hot caramelized apple running out and the flaky toast with sweet and sour apple slices at the same time.
Ingredients
- 10 slices toast
- 1 egg, beaten
- caramelized apple, Note 1
- cinnamon powder
Instructions
STUFFED APPLE TARTLET
- Beat the egg in the bowl, set aside.
- Remove the skin around the toast. Then use a rolling pin to flatten the toast top and bottom, left and right, 2 times each. (Note 2)
- Brush the sides of the toast with egg wash. (Note 3) Then place the caramelized apple on the left side of the toast and use a knife to make 3 horizontal cuts on the right side.
- Fold the toast in half. Press the sides of the toast in with the tip of a fork to secure the opening. Brush the top of the tartlet with the egg wash. (Note 4)
- Preheat the oven to 180 °C/ 356 °F. Then bake for 20 minutes.

- Roll the toast a few times with a rolling pin to make it flatter. It'll taste flaky after baking.
