Tarte Tatin
This iconic dessert was allegedly created by the Tatin sisters of France's Loire Valley. Legend is that while trying to repair a baking error, they ended up with this upside-down dessert of flaky pastry and apples bathed in caramel.

I made one change. I subbed 1.5 oz of whole wheat flour for all purpose flour. Made this for a dinner party. It was a big hit. Everyone asked for 2nds and 3rds. I used a nonstick pan and it came right out. The crust tasted like a shortbread cookie!
Read MoreRecipe was huge hit for special occasion. First attempt, crust stuck to pan...I reduced the sit time to just 2 minutes on my 2nd attempt and it came out beautifully. I also worked on seasoning my cast iron pan more between the 2 attempts (lots of bacon and greasy foods!). My husband thought it was too sweet...but everyone else said it was one of the best Tarte Tatin's they've had (even in France!).

Read MoreFollowed the recipe to the letter. The crust did not turn out well at all. Did not like the taste. Will not try to make again
