Method
- 1
Preheat the oven to 200 °C / 180 °C fan. Peel, core, and halve the apples.
- 2
Scatter the sugar in an even layer in a 24 cm ovenproof frying pan. Cook over a medium heat, without stirring, until a deep amber caramel forms. Add the butter and vanilla and swirl to combine.
- 3
Arrange the apple halves tightly in the caramel, cut-side up. Cook for 5 minutes until the apples begin to soften.
- 4
Drape the puff pastry over the apples, tucking the edges down around the fruit. Bake for 25–30 minutes until the pastry is deeply golden.

Leave to rest for 5 minutes, then invert carefully onto a serving plate. Serve warm with crème fraîche.
