Another easy yummy recipe I made over the Xmas break

This one makes 6 but you can easily double

Prep time 15 minutes plus 30 min standing time
25 min cooking



50g unsalted butter

2 large apples, peeled, cored, cut into 1cm pieces , I used Pink ladies but any is ok

1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

2 tablespoon brown sugar

1/4 cup Woolworths sultanas

3 sheets frozen puff pastry, partially thawed

1 free range egg, lightly beaten

300ml thickened cream

1/4 cup icing sugar mixture

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

METHOD :

Tip:Make the apple filling and pastry shells several hours ahead. Fill shells with apple and cream just before serving.

Step 1​

Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. Line a baking tray with baking paper.

Step 2​

Melt butter in a medium frying pan over medium-high heat. Add apple, cinnamon and brown sugar, then cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until apple is light golden. Transfer to a medium bowl, then stir in sultanas.

Step 3​

Cut 2 x 12.5cm rounds from each pastry sheet. Fold rounds in half and place on tray. Brush tops with egg. Bake for 15 minutes or until golden and puffed. Remove trays from oven, then cool pastry on trays.

Step 4​

Meanwhile, using an electric mixer beat cream, 2 tbs icing sugar and vanilla in a large bowl until stiff peaks form. Transfer to a piping bag fitted with a 1cm star-shaped nozzle.

Step 5​

Using a small serrated knife, split pastry open along rounded side to create a cavity, ensuring not to cut all the way through. Divide apple mixture among pastries, then pipe in cream mixture. Serve dusted with remaining icing sugar.

Note: if you can't pipe cream in then just use a spoon to scoop the cream inside pastry

Definitely going to try this one and maybe do (just for my own consumption) what I used to do as a teenager - add a smear of honey before the apples. Mmmmm, heaven!

I sometimes treat myself to one from Cole's, but I'm tempted to make a batch.
My all time favourite is vanilla slices.

Oh yes, vanilla slices. So absolutely yummy when the recipe is just right, but I’ve never made them. Scared of the custard I think

I think Wollies make the best Apple turnovers
