Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Peel the bananas.
- Cut each banana into halves lengthwise.
- In a medium-sized oven-safe skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.
- Once the butter has melted, add the brown sugar and stir constantly until it is completely dissolved and forms a smooth caramel sauce. This should take about 3-5 minutes.
- Carefully place the banana halves into the skillet, cut side facing down. Let the bananas simmer in the caramel for about 2-3 minutes. Gently spoon some of the caramel over the bananas to ensure they are well coated.
- Roll out the puff pastry shells on a lightly floured surface if necessary to fit the size of your skillet. Each pastry should be large enough to cover the bananas in the skillet.
- Carefully place each puff pastry shell over the caramelized bananas in the skillet.
- Tuck the edges of the puff pastry inside the skillet around the bananas to enclose them.
- Move the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until the puff pastry is golden brown and puffed.
- Once baked, remove the skillet from the oven. Let it cool for about 5 minutes to allow the caramel to set slightly.
- Carefully run a knife around the edges of the tart to loosen it.
- Place a serving plate or a larger dish over the skillet. With a swift motion, invert the skillet to release the tart onto the serving plate.
- Serve the Banana Tartes Tatin warm. Optionally, you can add a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence.
Tips:
- Use ripe but firm bananas.: The ripeness of the bananas will contribute to the sweetness of the dish. However, overly ripe bananas might become too mushy during cooking.
- Thaw the puff pastry properly.: Make sure to thaw the puff pastry according to the package instructions. This will ensure it puffs up properly and achieves a nice, flaky texture.
- Caramelize the sugar evenly.: When cooking the brown sugar with butter, make sure to stir continuously to avoid any burning and to achieve a smooth, even caramel.
- Invert the tarts carefully.: After baking, let the tarts cool for a few minutes before inverting them to avoid burning yourself with the hot caramel.
- Serve with ice cream.: For an extra touch of indulgence, serve the Banana Tartes Tatin with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
