1Make a short pastry: rub flour, sugar, salt and butter, add yolk and milk, chill 30 min.
2Caramelize the sugar dry in an oven-proof skillet; add the butter, then pack the apple quarters tightly in a spiral.
3Cook 15 min on the stove, tucking the apples as they slump.
4Cover with the pastry, tucking the edges in. Bake at 190°C/375°F for 35-40 min until deep amber at the edges.
5Rest 10 min — then flip with confidence in one motion. Serve warm with crème fraîche.
