  • Preparation: 15 min
  • Cooking: 25 min
  • Makes: 1 serving (213 g)
  • Difficulty: Medium
  • Diets: Vegetarian
  • Contains: dairy, egg, gluten

Ingredients

  • 70 g Puff pastry
  • 110 g Apples, raw
  • 15 g Sugar
  • 5 g Butter, unsalted
  • 5 g Lemon juice
  • 0.3 g Cinnamon
  • 8 g Eggs, whole, raw

Method

  1. Peel, core and dice the apple, then cook it with the sugar, butter, lemon juice and cinnamon in a small pan over medium heat for 8-10 minutes until soft and any liquid has evaporated; cool completely.
  2. Roll the puff pastry into an oval and spoon the cooled apple filling onto one half, leaving a clear border.
  3. Brush the border with a little beaten egg, fold the pastry over to enclose the filling, and press the edges firmly to seal; crimp with a fork.
  4. Brush the top with more beaten egg and score a few shallow curved lines in a fan pattern for the classic look.
  5. Bake at 200 °C (400 °F) for 20-25 minutes until puffed and deep golden. Cool slightly before eating.
