Fake Apple Pies Recipe

Method

• 1)

  Preheat the Oven to 220°C and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

• 2)

  Slice then core the apples into medium (not too thin) rings.

• 3)

  In a separate shallow bowl, mix the caster sugar and pumpkin spice together.

• 4)

  Sprinkle the sugar and spice mixture over the apple slices, making sure they are evenly coated. Toss gently to ensure all the slices are covered.

• 5)

  Cut the pastry into thin strips, about 1/2-inch wide.

• 6)

  Take a strip of puff pastry and wrap it around an apple ring, slightly overlapping the edges to secure it. Repeat this with all the apple slices and pastry strips.

• 7)

  In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and cream to create an egg wash.

• 8)

  Place the wrapped apple rings on the prepared baking sheet. Brush each one with the egg wash, that will help to achieve a shiny finish.

• 9)

  Sprinkle a bit more of the sugar and spice mixture over the top of each apple ring.

• 10)

  Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 20 minutes or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.

• 11)

  Allow your apple pies to cool slightly before serving. They can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature. Optionally, you can serve them with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for extra indulgence.
