To make this Salted Caramel Apple Tart, you will need the following ingredients:

For the crust:

- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 egg yolk
- 2 tbsp ice water

For the filling:

- 4 medium-sized apples, peeled and thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1 tsp sea salt
To start, preheat your oven to 375°F. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and salt. Add the chilled butter and use a pastry cutter or your hands to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the egg yolk and ice water and mix until the dough comes together.
Roll out the dough on a floured surface and transfer it to a 9-inch tart pan. Press the dough into the pan and trim the edges. Prick the bottom of the crust with a fork and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until lightly golden.
While the crust is baking, prepare the filling. In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the sugar and stir until it dissolves. Add the heavy cream and salt and stir until the mixture thickens and turns a caramel color. Add the sliced apples and stir until they are coated in the caramel sauce.
Pour the apple mixture into the pre-baked crust and bake for an additional 20-25 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the crust is golden brown. Let the tart cool for a few minutes before serving.
This Salted Caramel Apple Tart is a perfect combination of sweet and salty flavors. The crust is buttery and flaky, while the caramel sauce adds a rich and decadent flavor to the tart. The apples are tender and juicy, making this dessert a crowd-pleaser.
