Firm, tart apples caramelize right in the skillet, turning deeply amber and tender while soaking up notes of vanilla and a touch of sea salt. That golden caramel is the heart of this tart, coating each apple quarter until they're glossy and just soft enough to hold their shape after the flip. Everything bakes together in one pan until deeply golden and bubbling at the edges, then gets inverted onto a platter for that classic, glistening presentation. Serve it warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a spoonful of crème fraîche melting into the caramel — it's a showstopper dessert that fits neatly into a gluten free spread. The apples do all the heavy lifting here, so every bite is fruity, buttery, and rich without feeling overly sweet.

Preheat the oven to 400°F (205°C). On a lightly floured surface, roll the puff pastry into a circle roughly 11 inches in diameter. Transfer it to a parchment-lined baking sheet and refrigerate while you prepare the apples.
Peel, core, and quarter the apples. If the quarters are very large, halve them lengthwise so all pieces are roughly the same size — this helps them pack tightly and cook evenly.
