Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 package Dairy-free puff pastry
- 6 units Apricots
- 3 tablespoons Maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Almond milk
- 0.5 cup Powdered sugar
- 0.25 cup Slivered almonds
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Halve the apricots, remove pits, and slice them into thin wedges.
In a small saucepan, combine apricots, maple syrup, cornstarch, lemon juice, and vanilla extract.
Cook the apricot mixture over medium heat, stirring frequently, until it thickens slightly, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Roll out the dairy-free puff pastry on a lightly floured surface to about a 10x12-inch rectangle.
Cut the pastry into 8 equal squares and transfer them to the prepared baking sheet.
Spoon a generous amount of the apricot filling onto the center of each pastry square.
Fold the corners of each square towards the center over the filling, pressing gently to secure the edges.
Brush the edges of the pastry with almond milk to help with browning.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the pastries are golden brown and puffed.
Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly on a wire rack.
Mix the powdered sugar with 1 tablespoon of almond milk to create a smooth glaze. Drizzle over the warm pastries.
Sprinkle with slivered almonds as a finishing touch.
Serve warm or at room temperature and enjoy your dairy-free apricot Danish!
