A summer french dessert : An Apricot Tatin Tarte with Romary

The apricot came in France thanks to Louis XIV's gardener who planted apricot trees in the gardens of Versailles.  Now the culture of apricots in France is hundreds of kilometers down south in Roussillon, Provence and Vallée du Rhône. It's a fruit that we can appreciate from May during all the summer. 




Maybe you know the Tatin Tarte? An upside-down tart usually with apples that are caramelized in butter and sugar. Well I like to cook it with other fruits and combinations like Bananas and Chocolat, Pineapple and Basil or Apricots and Rosmary...Besides the apricot can be use with lavander, basil, verbena and other sunny stuffs !

Here we go for a summer recipe as you can see that one piece is quite low fat !
