This apple tart (Tarte Normande) is a French dessert that features signature ingredients from the northern region of the country, Normandy. Apples, butter and calvados, a type of brandy, are combined together in a delicious dessert that is as simple to make as it is elegant to look at. You can omit the brandy for an alcohol-free version.
