The picture is from a time I made them with regular pie crust and frosted them
4 cups thinly peeled and sliced apples (Granny Smith recommended)
2 tsp lemon juice
1 Tbl apple pie spice
1 1/2 c water
4 tsp corn starch
1 puff pastry, rolled out thinly
1 egg yolk mixed with
2 T water
(original recipe calls for 1 c crushed Frosted Flakes)
1. For Filling:
Place peeled and sliced apples in lemon juice and stir to coat. (I sprinkle it over the top and stir)
Set aside.
Combine sugar, cornstarch, apple pie spice and water in a sauce pan you can sprinkle on a pinch of salt.
Bring to a boil. Boil for about 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
Add apples and return to a boil.
Reduce heat. Cover and simmer until apples are tender - how long this takes depends on what variety of apples you use, so keep an eye on it.
Set aside to cool.
2. To Assemble:
Make egg wash by shisking egg yolk and water with a fork.
Wioth a rolling pin, roll out puff pastry (or pie crust) to 1/8"
Cut into rectangles, about 3x4 or 3x5.
Place 1-2 T apple filling on half of one side of each pastry rectangle.
Sprinkle about 1-2 T crushed Frosted Flakes over top of apple filling (I haven't tried this yet, although I've made it twice).
Brush the edges of the pastry with egg wash, and fold pastry in half, sealing in the apples. Crimp edges with a fork, then push them in a bit so they don't get burned on the edges.
Place on a cookie sheet lined with baking paper. I put a little Crisco or lard (in Europe) on the paper.
Chill in refrigerater about 30 minutes (I have never done this).
Bake for about 20-25 minutes at 200 degrees in Europe or 375-400 in USA. Since I didn't put mine in the fridge, they were done in 15 minutes. They shoud be golden, and the pastry cooked through.
I found the original recipe at #YummyHealthyEasy.com
Made Sept 3 and Sept 9, 2018 in Prague. Gave 2 to our Landlady, Elishka Petrova for her birthday.
Since this has so much sauce, I use the extra over ice cream or heated over pancakes. Yum!!
