Quickie Apple Danish



This apple danish is by far the simplest dessert I’ve ever made. It is a quick fix for a sweet tooth and best of all it requires only 3 – 4 ingredients that's probably sitting in your cupboard or pantry. The end result – deliciousness!!


Ingredients:
  • 2 sheets thawed puff pastry
  • 1 can apple pie filling (Comstock preferably)
  • ½ tsp ground cinnamon (optional)
  • 1 beaten egg (for egg wash)


Directions:
  1. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Pour pie filling into a bowl, add cinnamon and stir.
  3. Unfold one puff pastry sheet and roll on a lightly floured counter (be sure to put a bit of flour on the rolling pin and the pastry). Roll pastry to desired size and cut each one into four squares.
  4. Repeat with the other pastry sheet.
  5. Place a tablespoon of pie filling in the center of each square.
  6. Brush the edges of the squares with the egg wash and fold two corners diagonally. Place danish on baking sheet and refrigerate for about 20 minutes.
  7. Before baking, brush the top of each danish with eggwash. Bake in a 350 degrees preheated oven for about half an hour or until puffed and golden brown.
