Melt butter, add brown sugar and vanilla.
>>7471037
Add the apples (whoops)
>>7471037
you mean imitation vanilla flavor
>>7471048
Heck off.
>>7471042
Cook until tender.
>>7471056
Welp. I forgot I loaned out my pie dish so we're going to improvise. Remove apples from heat and smooth the top out to its relatively flat.
>>7471074
Puff pastry goes down.
>>7471084
Cut off the excess and patch any holes (I pushed down a little too hard and some juices came up, that's fine).
monitoring this thread OP, this looks comfy to cook
>>7471086
Into the oven. Trill niggaz put down a baking tray so they don't have to clean the oven in case of a boil over.
Baking pie in a pan... I like you.
>>7471091
Looks dry. Don't you usually egg wash pastries?
>>7471112
i egg washed ur mum m8
>>7471112
Yeah I forgot. Been forever since I have pastries. Just did it a minute ago.

Millennials... Go on whatever. Make sure your skinny pants are tucked up.
Apple tatin is one of my favorite desserts to make.
When I do it I autistically arrange the apple slices into a pattern before baking it, though.
>>7471037
I always wait for caramelisation before adding the apples. Also, I can't really gauge your proportions, but that seems to be a lot a butter.
>>7471166
Yeah I'm pretty much cooking from memory here. This isn't exactly how I've made it before but it's close enough.
>Imitation vanilla
>Slicing the apples about 5 times too thin
>Scattered randomly instead of single, even layer
>Boiling in sugar water instead of caramelising
>Cracked, shitty puff pastry
>No pricking with fork or crimping
It's her fucking birthday but you don't seem to give enough of a shit to cook the most basic pie properly.

If it tastes good, there are more important things than whether or not the vanilla was imitation. It came out looking good, even if it wasn't exactly what your google image search told you it should look like.
Did your girlfriend's husband help at all?
>>7471220
are u gonna tongue punch her twat box later tonight?
>>7471236
No but her son did
>>7471233
>there are more important things than whether or not the vanilla was imitation
Using imitation vanilla can kill an otherwise perfectly executed dish. It's pretty important.
>>7470993
What is her son going to eat?
>>7471257
Being an elitist snob can kill an otherwise perfect date. The vanilla isn't a big deal.
>>7470993
How clean and spotless is that pan...
Have you literally never used it?
>>7471279
Some people like to properly clean their cooking equipment. All my stainless looks like new.
>>7471006
are u autistic?
>>7471276
There's nothing elitist about not using imitation vanilla.
Are you also going to make her pancakes in the morning and slather them in Aunt Jemima? Because those are both things that are designed to be fed to children who lack developed taste buds.

It may be hard to imagine for someone who fails at the bare minimum, but there are people on this board who put effort into cooking and have actual experience with classic recipes.
Most of your mistakes could be overlooked as simple laziness, but you failed on the single most important element of a stupidly easy recipe when you boiled apples in sugary butter instead of caramelising them.
It's like rinsing rice for a risotto or not searing a steak.
>>7471074
>i loaned out my pie dish so we're going to improvise
Tarte tatin is supposed to be baked in the saute pan; it's a one dish dessert.
>>7471233
If it came out looking good, why did you post pictures of everything except the final result?
>>7471310
>>7471326
>>7471316
I'm not OP, I just don't see it as a big deal honestly. it looked decent and probably tasted good.
>>7471056
How about you frog off m8
>>7471333
Then I must have missed the picture where it came out looking good.
I hope OP delivers a final result.
>>7471316
Pretty much every recipe for tarte tatin calls for cooking apples in sugar and butter.
Even our fellow meme chef.

>>7471365
Of course those are the ingredients, but it's supposed to caramelise in them; not slowly simmer in all the water released from slicing the apples too thin and adding them to a lake of butter.
Otherwise it literally just tastes like apples with sugar and butter.
>>7471409
The caramelisation is sometimes done in the oven.
>>7471421
OP didn't reduce liquid enough. end result is his tart being soggy and the filling being a runny mushy mess
final result when?
Op here. I was in a rush making this and I had to leave pretty much as soon as it was cool enough to put in the car.
Shit definitely got fucked up because I didn't cook down the apples. Tasted awesome, get fucked if you think there was too much butter. It tasted like a caramel apple.
Next time I'm planning to toss the apples in a little sugar and let them drain out before I put them in the pan.
>>7472121
Looks like garbage, tastes like heaven. Oh well.
>>7472121
it's supposed to be upside down.
>>7471056
>heck off
not sure if i like or dislike you
>>7470993
