Production
Crumble mixture
Process all ingredients into a crumbly mixture (crumble).
Baking crumble bases
Distribute the prepared crumble mixture evenly into silicone molds (8 cm Ø, 3 cm height). Press the mixture flat using an object that matches the diameter of the mold.
Baking time: approx. 25 minutes
Baking temperature: 175°C (convection oven)
Leave the crumble bases to cool completely.
Tip: The bases can be baked in the same molds as the apples, since time and temperature are identical.
Preparing and baking the apples
Peel and core the apples and cut into thin slices.
Melt the sugar to a golden brown caramel. Melt the sugar into a golden brown caramel. Immediately pour it into the silicone molds and cover the bottom completely. Place approx. 70 g of apple slices tightly and overlapping on top of the caramel in each mold. Press down firmly – the apples will lose volume while baking.
Baking time: approx. 25 minutes
Baking temperature: 175°C
Let the molds with the baked apples cool completely.
Finishing
Place the cooled crumble bases on top of the baked apples and press down slightly. Then carefully invert the molds so that the apple layer ends up on top.
Glaze (optional)
When unmolding, some caramel-apple juice will escape. Collect it and mix with neutral cold jelly at a ratio of 1 : 2. Glaze the tarts with this jelly mixture.
Presentation
Place the tarts on small plates or mini cake boards, as a little juice may still seep out after unmolding.
