Ingredients:
• 2 – apples
• 1 – puff pastry sheet
• 1/2 tsp – Cinnamon
• 2 tbsp – Sugar
• 1 tbsp – all-purpose flour
• 1 – Egg
• For the nut layer: 1/4th cup – Walnuts (chopped finely)
• 2 tbsp – Brown sugar
• 1 tbsp – bread crumb
• 1 tbsp – white Sugar
Method:
- Preheat the oven to 375 F.
- Peel and chop the apples to about 1/2 inch cubes. Place them in a bowl and add the cinnamon, sugar, and flour.
- Give it a good mix and keep it aside for about 30 mins so that all the flavours can come together.
- In another bowl combine all the ingredients for the nut layer and keep it aside. Instead of chopping the nuts, gave it a pulse in the mixer.
- Thaw the pastry sheet to room temperature and roll it out on a well floured surface to about 12 x 14 inches.
- Sprinkle the nut layer on the sheet covering one half of the sheet vertically. Be sure to leave about an inch on the sides.
- Then layer it with the prepared apple mixture.
- Fold up one side of the pastry sheet and start rolling it into a log.
- Lay it on the baking sheet lined with parchment paper seam side down.
- Make sure to pinch the ends and tuck them under the log.
- Brush the top with egg wash. (Break open one egg and add about a tsp of water. Mix well and the egg wash is ready). Look below for substitutions instead of egg wash.
- Make several slices on top with a sharp knife for all the steam to escape. (This is very important if you do not want an explosion inside your oven).
- Put it in the oven and let it bake for about 40 to 45 mins or until golden brown.
- Cool it slightly on a wire rack.
- Serve it warm with a dollop of vanilla ice cream or with whipped cream.
