Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

For the filling
  • 2 to 3 large large apples (such as Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Fuji) Choose apples that balance sweetness with tartness.
  • 100 g sugar 1/2 cup
  • 1 tsp cinnamon 5 g
For the pastry
  • 2 rolls frozen puff pastry, thawed About 500 g / 17.6 oz
  • 1 medium egg For egg wash

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Peel, core, and slice the apples into thin wedges. In a mixing bowl, combine the apple slices with sugar and cinnamon, tossing until evenly coated.
  3. Roll out each sheet of puff pastry on a lightly floured surface to about 1/8 inch (3 mm) thickness; make sure not to overwork the dough.
  4. Cut each sheet into squares or rectangles, roughly 4 to 6 inches wide.
Assembly
  1. Place a generous spoonful of the apple mixture in the center of each pastry piece, ensuring not to overfill them.
  2. Fold over the pastry to create a triangle or rectangle and press the edges to seal. Use a fork to crimp the edges, which helps keep the filling from leaking out.
  3. Beat the egg in a small bowl and brush it over the top of each pastry for that golden finish.
Baking
  1. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until they’re puffed and golden brown.
  2. Allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them warm or at room temperature.

Notes

Drizzle a little caramel sauce over the top before serving for an extra sweet touch. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days.
