Light in Flavour

When you want a delicate sweetness in your baking, using White Sugar or Caster Sugar can provide a subtle sweetness that enhances the other flavours without overpowering them.

Fruity

Using fruit can add a natural, fruity sweetness to baking, creating a refreshing, light flavour or adding sweet tartness. White Sugar or Caster Sugar in baking, allows the flavour of the fruit to shine and Jam Setting Sugar preserves the taste of fruit in vibrant jams.

Nutty

Coconut Sugar bring a subtle nuttiness to baked goods, elevating the taste with a mild, natural sweetness and pairs beautifully with tropical flavours.

Spiced

Using sugars with spices like cinnamon, ginger, licorice or chai can lend a warm, aromatic sweetness to baking.

Caramel

Utilising brown sugars or incorporating caramelised sugar syrups creates a richer, deeper flavor profile, adding a hint of caramel or toffee-like taste.

Chocolate

Chocolate adds a decadent richness to baked goods with its deep cocoa flavour, making it perfect for indulgent treats. Try adding a deep flavoured Brown Sugar to the mix for enhanced chocolate flavour.

Method
Preheat oven to 200C (fan forced oven).
Wash the beetroot, cut their tops and tails, and place on a large piece of foil. Drizzle them with the olive oil and then add a little sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Fold the foil up so that the beetroot is enclosed in the foil, place the foil on a baking tray and pop in the oven to roast for about 45 minutes or until the beets are just soft.
Allow the beetroot to cool for 10 minutes before removing their skin and slicing them into 1.5cm thick slices. Place to the side.
In a 19cm ovenproof frypan or skillet, heat the demerara sugar over a medium heat until it begins to melt, then add the butter and balsamic vinegar. Allow the mixture to come to a boil, then reduce the heat and allow it to simmer for 3 minutes or until it thickens a little.
Increase the heat again to a medium heat, add the shallots and cook for 3 minutes until they become lovely and fragrant. Add the beetroot slices and gently stir them about with a wooden spoon until they are well covered in the sauce. Cook it all for a further 3 minutes or so until the liquid reduces to a thick syrup. Turn the heat off and allow the mixture to cool for 5 minutes.
Take out the butter puff pastry sheet from the freezer and allow it to thaw while you prepare the rest of the dish.
Arrange the beetroot slices in a spiral manner, overlapping them slightly as you go. They are quite soft by now so it is important that you handle the slices gently so they don't break apart. The shallots can act as fillers between the beetroot - they look so beautiful in this tart!
Cut the pastry in a 24cm round and place it over the beetroot and shallots, tucking the edges of the pastry into the side of the pan. This forms the delicious edging to the tarte tatin so it's completely normal for the pastry to be a little on the thick side of the pan compared to the section of pastry in the middle covering the beets. Prick the base of the pastry 5 times with a fork to allow steam to escape during cooking and place the pan in the oven for 40-45 minutes or until the edges are gorgeously puffy and a golden brown colour.
Remove from the oven and allow the tarte tatin to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto the serving plate. Allow it to set for at least 20 minutes before serving. This dish is beautiful with a little feta and mint or rocket leaves scattered over the top however if you would like the beautiful pattern on top of the tart to shine, it is best served plain with a green salad on the side.
