So easy! - So fast! - So delicious!
A comforting dessert for two that's bursting with rich-melted cream and warm-sweetened apples bathed in cinnamon, brown sugar and nutmeg! All tucked sweetly between light yet sturdy, chewy yet crispy pastry layers. Great work students!

Cooking Instructions

20 mins
  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 400°

  2. 2

    De-thaw pastry sheet on counter for about 30 minutes.

  3. 3

    Peel, de-seed and 1" chop apples and place in pot with enough water to cover. Add everything in the Apple Boil section to the apples. Boil for about 11 - 13 minutes. You'll want a slight crisp to your apples so don't over boil.

  4. 4

    Cut your pastry dough into what shapes you'd like. Begin baking your pastry. Usually, it'll take about 15 minutes but read manufactures baking directions.

  5. 5

    Drain apples and place back in pot. Add everything [except corn starch] in the Apple Mixture Binder section and heat. To thicken: Mix corn starch in water and mix. Add 1/2 to your mixture and allow to bubble up again. Add the rest if you want this mixture thicker. Add additional brown sugar or tame the sweetness with lemon juice.

  6. 6

    Allow pastries to cool and split them in halves. Smear a layer of whipped cream and your apple mixture and sprinkle it with cinnamon or nutmeg. Top it with another pastry half. Save the domes for your tops. Repeat step for as many layers as you'd like.

  7. 7

    Serve immediately with forks and knives. Garnish any way you'd like or choose from the Garnish - Side Section. Either way, have fun and enjoy!
