How to Prepare French Apple Tart:

1. Prepare the whipped cream:

   • In a mixer, combine the European cream and powdered sugar. Whisk the mixture until it doubles in size. Place the whipped cream into a piping bag and refrigerate.

2. Prepare the dough:

   • In a mixer, whisk the egg yolks and sugar until the mixture becomes light in color.
   • Add the butter and flour, and mix until you achieve a smooth and cohesive dough.
   • Roll out the dough on a floured surface and cut it into a round shape. Place the dough in a greased baking pan.
   • Preheat the oven to 160°C (320°F). Once heated, bake the dough for 20 minutes.

3. Prepare the apple filling:

   • In a saucepan, melt the sugar over medium heat, stirring occasionally until it turns into caramel.
   • Add the butter and stir until it melts and combines with the caramel.
   • Add the diced apples and cook them until they soften and blend with the caramel. Remove from heat and pour the mixture into a round mold slightly smaller than the baking pan containing the dough.

4. Prepare the crème pâtissière:

   • In a bowl, mix the cornstarch and sugar. Add the eggs and whisk until combined.
   • Heat the milk in a saucepan over medium heat until warm, then add the egg mixture, stirring rapidly to create a smooth cream. Remove from heat and allow the mixture to cool. Place the crème pâtissière in a piping bag.

5. Assemble the tart:

   • Place the baked dough on a serving plate. Pipe a layer of crème pâtissière in the center of the dough.
   • Spread the apple mixture on top of the cream. Decorate the edges of the tart with caramel and the European whipped cream.
