Brown Butter 101
Let butter cool for 10 minutes.
Don't try to do anything else while you brown butter. It can burn in an instant!
Slowly whisk brown butter into egg mixture; add vanilla, flour and salt.
Line tart shell with apples.
Don't be a perfectionist! The tart looks prettiest when the apples are scattered.
Pour filling over apples.
Bake until apples are deep golden brown and filling is puffed and set in center.
Let cool on a wire rack about 2 hours. Serve warm or at room temperature.
