Directions
LOTUS BISCOFF BASE
- With a spatula, mix the Lotus Crumbles and the softened butter, until homogenously combined.
- Use around 50 grs in each tart ring, and pile them well to become a dense base.

MILK CHOCOLATE & CINNAMON GANACHE
- Heat the cream and the cinnamon at 75˚C (use your RAY-DIGITAL thermometer).
- Pour the hot cream on the 823 milk chocolate until the chocolate is melted.

- Put the frozen diced apples in a ceramic plate.
- Sprinkle the brown sugar and mix to cover the apple.
- Add the softened butter and mix gently without breaking the diced apples.
- Split the vanilla bean, scrape off the seeds and mix into diced apples. Reserve the bean/pod and roast with tarts in oven.
