Looking for dessert ideas to cook with your Gozney this winter? Try this delicious Tarte Tatin by the legendary Thomas Straker.

Step 1:

Roughly peel and de-core the apples. Cut into quarters.  

Step 2:

Create a caramel by adding sugar and water to a pan on the hob and letting it bubble. You’re looking to achieve a dark caramel colour. Spoon in the butter, and add the apples.

Step 3:

Allow the apples to cook down for around 15-20 minutes slowly until dark and golden.

Step 4:

Layer up the apples in a cast-iron pan, and pour in some of the caramel.

Step 5:

Roll out a sheet of puff pastry, and cut out a ‘lid’ that fits on top of the cast iron pan and covers the apples. Crimp the edges down.  

Step 6:

Place in the Gozney Dome using embers, at around 300°C/570°F for around 20 minutes.

Step 7:

Whilst the Tarte Tatin is cooking, whisk the double cream with a spoon of icing sugar, until thick.

Step 8:

Remove the Tarte Tatin from the oven and turn it over on a plate. 

Step 9:

Finish with a sprig of fresh thyme and a scoop of whipped cream. Serve and enjoy!
