Tarte Tatin with Nectarines

Cut the nectarines in half and remove the pits. Set one half aside and cut the rest into quarters.

Place the sugar in a Tarte Tatin dish. Alternatively, you can use a pan that is ovenproof.

Melt the sugar until it begins to caramelize, then add the butter.

Let it simmer until it reaches a caramel-like consistency.

Place the nectarine pieces in the center of the dish with the cut side up. Arrange the quartered nectarines around it, and make sure to press them together well. They can overlap slightly.

Let the nectarines simmer until they have absorbed some of the caramel. Remove the dish from the heat.

Preheat the oven to 200°C.

Roll out the puff pastry into a lid that is slightly larger than the dish.

Place the pastry over the dish and press the edges down well around the nectarines.

Bake the tart for 25-30 minutes, until the bottom is golden and crispy.

Let the tart cool for 10-15 minutes, then invert it onto a plate. If you wish to serve the tart in the dish, wipe it clean and return the tart to the dish.
