Preparation of puff pastry pies with apples:

Step 1: prepare the filling.

First you need to prepare the main ingredient - apples. We wash the fruits under running water and, using a special vegetable knife or a regular one, remove the peel. Then we transfer them to a cutting board, cut them in half and remove the core with the seeds. Next, cut the apples into cubes approximately the size of 1 centimeter. And after that, put them in a deep plate or other container. In a small cup, mix vanilla extract and water. Set the prepared mixture aside.

Next, turn the stove temperature to medium and place the frying pan on the burner. Take the butter out of the refrigerator, cut off a small piece of it and place it on the bottom of the frying pan. Distribute it evenly, and when it is completely melted, add the chopped apples. Fry them for 5 - 7 minutes, then reduce the temperature of the stove and add sugar.

Mix everything with a kitchen spatula so that the sugar is evenly mixed with the apple pieces. And after that, pour in the starch mixture. Then mix everything again and fry the apples until the juice appears.

Once the liquid begins to thicken and the mass looks like jam, turn off the heat. Using a kitchen spatula, transfer our filling to a deep plate or other container.

Step 2: prepare the dough.



Sprinkle a flat surface with a small amount of flour. We take two test sheets out of the package. Afterwards, we flour the rolling pin and begin to roll out the dough into a rectangular layer, no thicker than 4 millimeters. Then, using a knife, cut the layer into squares with a side of 7 - 8 millimeters. And put them aside. Next, roll out the second dough sheet in exactly the same way. We cut it into squares and proceed directly to the formation of pies.

Step 3: form the pies.



Using a teaspoon, spread the filling onto the test square, slightly shifting it from the center to the side.

Then we connect two opposite corners diagonally. Forming a triangular pie.

To prevent our filling from leaking out, we need to seal the edges. To do this, pinch the edges of the formed pie with your hands. Next, we trim these edges with a knife or other equipment to give the baked goods a more beautiful look. appearance. After all the pies are formed, all that remains is to bake them.

Step 4: bake the pies.



Preheat the oven to 175 degrees Celsius. Line the baking tray with baking paper. Afterwards, place the pies at some distance from each other so that the yeast dough can rise easily during baking. Then pour the cream into a wide cup and, using a kitchen brush, carefully brush the surface of the pies.

Next, sprinkle the greased surface with sugar, choosing the amount of this component according to your own taste. And after the pies are completely prepared and the temperature has reached the set value, we remove the baking sheet into the oven. The pies will bake approximately 30 - 35 minutes, readiness is easy to determine visually, as soon as the surface is browned and covered with an appetizing crust, you can remove the baking sheet from the oven. At the same time, do not rush to serve the baked goods immediately; let it sit for a while and cool to room temperature.

Step 5: serve puff pastry pies with apples.



When the pies have cooled completely, you can serve them. Prepare fresh tea or coffee and start your morning meal! At the same time, this dish is convenient because you can take it with you not only to work, but also to nature, having a picnic in the warm season. Bon appetit!

If you have brown sugar, then white can be replaced with it. Apples fried with this sugar will turn out to be more saturated in color.

To obtain a golden brown crust in baked goods, pies can be greased not only with cream, but also with raw eggs.

Try to cook the purchased semi-finished product immediately, since the dough is yeasty and can rise even in packaging.

If you make the squares too small, the filling may tear the dough and spill out during baking.

For cinnamon lovers, you can add a little of this aromatic spice to apples.

If you don't have baking paper, you can grease the baking tray with regular vegetable oil or butter.
