How to Make Apple Puff Crust
1. Preheat & Prep
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Prepare the Apples
- In a bowl, toss the apple slices with brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, melted butter, and lemon juice.
- Let the mixture sit for a few minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
3. Roll Out the Puff Pastry
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry slightly.
- Place it on the prepared baking sheet.
- If desired, lightly score a 1-inch border around the edges (this helps create a raised crust).
4. Assemble & Bake
- Arrange the apple slices in the center of the puff pastry, slightly overlapping.
- Brush the edges with beaten egg for a golden crust.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed up.
5. Serve & Enjoy
- Let the pastry cool slightly.
- Dust with powdered sugar for a finishing touch.
- Serve warm on its own or with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
Tips & Variations
Use Different Apples – Try Fuji, Pink Lady, or Golden Delicious for different flavors.
Drizzle with Honey or Caramel – Adds extra sweetness.
Add Nuts – Sprinkle chopped walnuts or pecans for crunch.
Make it Vegan – Use a plant-based puff pastry and brush with almond milk instead of egg wash.
