Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 sheet Puff pastry sheet
- 2 medium Apples (peeled, cored, and thinly sliced)
- 3 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 large Egg (beaten, for egg wash)
- 1 tablespoon All-purpose flour (for dusting work surface)
- 1 tablespoon Powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Lightly dust your work surface with flour and roll out the puff pastry sheet to about a 10x12-inch rectangle.
Transfer the puff pastry to the prepared baking sheet and set it aside.
In a medium bowl, combine the sliced apples, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and melted butter. Toss until the apples are evenly coated.
Arrange the apple slices in a slightly overlapping pattern down the center of the puff pastry, leaving about a 1-inch border on all sides.
Fold the edges of the puff pastry over the apples, creating a border. Press the edges gently to secure them.
Brush the edges of the pastry with the beaten egg to give it a golden finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown and the apples are tender.
Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes.
If desired, dust the top with powdered sugar before serving.
Slice and serve warm, either on its own or with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
