75g = 2,6455 ounces


150g = 5,2911 ounces





It's most often connected to Normandie (Tarte de Pommes a la Normande). Apple pies of different kinds has been popular in many areas and it's hard to say anything about origin and so on.





Tarte Tatin, that's an upside down apple tart, is French and does have a history. St茅phanie Tatin made it by mistake when cooking at her and her sisters hotel. She was planning on making a traditional apple pie but left the apples cooking for long in the sugar. To save the dish she put the pastry on top instead. It was a success among the customers and it spread through the Sologne region.
