Rough puff pastry tatin

This is my first attempt at rough puff pastry. It was nice on first eating, but didn't keep at all well the following day.
I didn't integrate the butter well enough. Also, the colouring on the apples isn't uniform enough - i needed to move them around much more in the pan (whilst keeping them in formation). I think tiredness was beginning to set in, and was followed up with illness, which has kiboshed me all this week.
A good mistake in a way - puff pastry is not considered easy, and the lamination needed to stop the fat just leaking out is good to understand and see it go a bit wrong.
Be good to try again when feeling better.
