Thyme Apple Tart Cake with Rum Butterscotch Sauce

The pastry layer that forms the base of this cake sets it texturally apart from your standard cake, giving it tart vibes. Fresh thyme lends its gentle herbal notes to lift the apple, but the real hero here is the rum butterscotch sauce, which brings a warming heat and is so delicious it’s hard to stop yourself pouring a bit more, and a bit more, and a bit more... Go on, treat yourself.
