Roll the pastry into a tart pan and prick it. Dust the work surface lightly with flour. If the dough sticks, ten minutes in the fridge firms it up better than extra flour.
Peel and cut into thin slices. Weigh everything first, then cut pieces of the same size so they cook evenly. Keep the trimmings aside until the end, in case you need to adjust.
Arrange them in a rosette, then add sugar, cinnamon and dabs of butter. Count the time from when you start, and only move on once you get the result described. Amount for this step: 1 tsp cinnamon.
40 minutes at 180°C. Preheat the oven to the temperature given, with the rack in the middle. Only open the door if the recipe says so: the dish is ready when it is golden and the time is up.
