My mother taught me this recipe. This is perfect when you have leftover apples or when you want to make an easy snack.

Make sure you preheat the oven to 200℃/400°F! Changing the oven temperature halfway through is also key! This filling makes a light apple pie. If you want to make an apple pie with plenty of filling, increase the amount. I often hear that this pie is light on the sweetness, so if you have a sweet tooth, increase the amount of sugar to your liking.

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Peel the apple, remove the core, and then slice thinly.

  2. 2

    Defrost 2 sheets of frozen puff pastries. ※I used 12 x 20 cm size. It takes 10 to 15 minutes to defrost.

  3. 3

    Put the filling ingredients (apple, granulated sugar, cinnamon, red wine, lemon juice, and raisins) in a heatproof dish, cover with plastic wrap, and microwave for 15 minutes. When finished microwaving, let the mixture cool.

  4. 4

    Preheat the oven to 200℃.

  5. 5

    Place one of the puff pastries on a baking sheet, and pierce with a fork.

  6. 6

    Drain the excess liquid from the filling, and spread out on the middle of the puff pastry.

  7. 7

    Leaving the edges intact, make cuts at even intervals.

  8. 8

    Place the puff pastry with the cuts over Step 6, and press down the edges with a fork. Brush the surface with the beaten egg mixture (egg yolk + water).

  9. 9

    Bake in the oven preheated to 200℃ for 15-20 minutes. When the top layer starts to rise and brown, reduce the oven temperature to 160℃, and continue baking for 15-20 minutes.

  10. 10

    It's done!

  11. 11

    Enjoy while it's freshly baked.
