This Fall dessert will surely knock your socks of. The delicious flavors of apple and cinnamon ooze Fall. Try this paired with vanilla icecream.

Ingredients

• Ready-made puff pastry — 400 g (14 ounces)
• Apple — 3 pcs (use juicy, crunchy, sweet apples!)
• Cinnamon — ½ tsp
• Cane sugar — 4 tbsp
• Cornstarch — 1 tsp
• Water — 1 tbsp
• Egg yolk — 1 pcs

Directions

1. Defrost the puff pastry beforehand. Wash and dice the apples.
2. Place the apples in a saucepan with 3 tablespoons of sugar and half a teaspoon of cinnamon.
3. Place the pan over medium heat and cook for a few minutes, stirring constantly, until the sugar has dissolved. Stir the cornstarch into a small amount of cold water until smooth and add to the apples.
4. Stir well and cook the apples for a few minutes until the juice has thickened (the whole mixture should be sticky). Then remove from the heat and let the apples rest.
5. Sprinkle the thawed dough with a little flour and roll out to about 0.5 cm (0.2 inches) thick. Then cut out circles (I used a glass and a knife to do this).I had 2 sheets of ready-made puff pastry which made 16 circles (I also used the leftover dough after cutting). It is important that you get an even number of dough circles.
6. Make small snowflake-shaped cuts on half of the dough circles (watch how I do it in the video).
7. Spread 1 tablespoon of the apple filling on each of the remaining circles (the ones without the cuts). Cover with a circle of the scored dough, pressing the edges together a little with your fingers and then running a fork around the circle to create a nice scalloped edge.
8. Brush the puffs with egg yolk and sprinkle with a little cane sugar (this will make the crust more golden).
9. Put the puffs in a preheated oven at 175°C (350°F) for 15-20 minutes (convection mode). After that, take the puffs out of the oven and let them cool down. Enjoy!
