From timeless classics to a savoury twist on a sweet favourite, food critic François-Régis Gaudry shares his guilty pleasures – and some nifty hacks too






Ingredients

  • 4 apples
  • 2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons (40 g) unsalted butter
  • 1 tablespoon demerara sugar
  • 1 wheel (9 ounces / 250 g) Camembert cheese, sliced
  • 14 ounces (400 g) puff pastry dough

Directions

1Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).

2Peel the apples and cut them into thick slices, then lightly sauté them in the butter and sugar.

3Arrange parchment paper in the bottom of a cake pan or a baking dish.

4Spread the apples over the top of the parchment, then distribute the slices of Camembert on top.

5Roll out the puff pastry dough and cover the top of the pan with it, tucking the edges into the pan to make a border.

6Bake for 20 minutes, or until golden. Serve warm with a green salad and a dry craft cider.
