Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 30 minutes
Servings 8 servings

Equipment

  • Sheet pan

Ingredients

  • 1 13.2 ounce sheet frozen puff pastry thawed
  • 3 large tart apples about 1 1/2 pounds
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 egg lightly beaten for egg wash

Instructions

  • Peel and slice apples thin. You want about 15 slices per apple.  Toss together with lemon juice, brown sugar, flour and cinnamon.  Allow to sit for at least 15 minutes to macerate in the sugar and spices.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.  Unroll sheet of puff pastry onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment.Arrange apple slices on the puff pastry, leaving an inch all the way around.  Fold up the edges. Brush the beaten egg around the edges of your folded up puff pastry. You won't use all of the egg.
  • Bake for about 30 minutes, rotating the pan 180 degrees after 15 minutes.  Enjoy, possibly with some ice cream or caramel sauce

Notes

*I hadn't even thawed my puff pastry the first time I made this, I just put it near my oven as it was preheating and it thawed out in about 15 minutes.
*If you don't have whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour works just fine.
