Description

Flaky, buttery puff pastry dough is wrapped around an apple that is sprinkled in cinnamon sugar. The buns are baked until golden and crisp and the apple is tender on the inside. Dessert doesn’t get much easier than this.


Ingredients

Scale

2 large apples, peeled and cored

1 box frozen puff pastry

23 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon


Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside. In a small bowl, whisk together sugar and cinnamon.

2. Peel and core the apples. Cut apple into slices, crosswise (lay apple on side and cut into slices, so that the shape of the slice is a ring). Make sure the center hole is roughly 1 ½ inches – use a knife or a small circle cookie cutter to increase the width of the center.

3. Brush the apple slice with melted butter, then sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.

4. Cut the puff pastry into ¼ inch thick strips. Wrap the puff pastry around the apple slices, weaving the puff pastry through the center of the apple slice and around the apple ring. Overlap the strips as you wrap the apple with the puff pastry.

5. Place on prepared baking sheet. Brush with melted butter and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar. Bake in preheated oven 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
