Ingredients
  

  • 6 apples Golden Delicious or Pink Lady
  • 100 g granulated sugar

  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Equipment

  • Sharp chef’s knife
  • Whisk or heat-proof spatula
  • Pastry brush
  • Aluminum foil

Method
 

  1. Place sugar in a clean, dry skillet over medium heat without stirring.
  2. Allow sugar to melt at the edges until it turns amber gold, then swirl the pan.
  3. Carefully add butter and a pinch of salt, whisking until smooth, then remove from heat.
  4. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper, allowing some overhang.
  5. Peel, core, and thinly slice apples, tossing them with lemon juice.
  6. Start layering apples in the prepared pan, brushing with warm caramel between each layer.
  7. Cover the top tightly with aluminum foil and preheat oven to 150°C (300°F).
  8. Bake for 1.5 to 2 hours, until tender when pierced with a knife.

Notes

Choose firm apples like Golden Delicious for the best texture. You can make the caramel in advance, but it’s best used fresh. The terrine can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or frozen for up to 2 months. For serving, consider drizzling with extra caramel or crème fraîche for added richness. Enjoy chilled or gently warmed!
