Step by step recipe

Stage 1 - 10 min.

Spread 150 g Yeast-based flaky dough (for croissants) to a thickness of 2 or 3 mm (use spacers if you can), in a 10 cm (4") high strip.

Stage 2 - 2 min.

Cut 6 cm (2.5") rectangles from the strip and set aside in the fridge.

Stage 3 - 5 min.

Peel 2 apples, cut in 2, remove the core, then slice each half.

Stage 4 - 2 min.

Pour the apple slices into a bowl and sprinkle with the melted 15 g butter and 15 g brown sugar.

Stage 5 - 2 min.

Mix well.

Stage 6 - 2 min.

Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F).

Place a sheet of baking paper on a baking sheet, then arrange slices of sweet and sour apples, less than the length of a pastry rectangle.

Stage 7 - 2 min.

Cover with a rectangle of pastry, pressing down on the edges to enclose the apples.

Stage 8 - 15 min.

Do this for all your pastry rectangles, using a second baking sheet if necessary.

Stage 9 - 2 min.

Brush each rectangle of dough with a coat of glaze.

Stage 10 - 20 min.

Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes, watching for browning.

Stage 11 - 2 min.

Once out of the oven, using oven gloves or oven mitts, place a second baking sheet on top of the first and turn over to place the apples back on top.

Stage 12 - 1 min.

Remove the baking paper.

Stage 13 - 5 min.

Leave to cool on a wire rack.

Enjoy warm (yum!) or cold.

Remarks

You can return the baking sheet to the oven for 5 minutes after removing the baking paper in step 12, to give the apples a more pronounced color.

Feel free to use this recipe with other fruits, depending on the season: pears, apricots, etc.

Keeping

If possible, enjoy during the day to take full advantage of the crispness.
