Ingredients
- 1 roll puff pastry
- 1 apple
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- lemon juice
- as needed custard
- as needed powdered sugar
Preparation
While the cream cools, wash and dice the apple. Place the apple cubes in a bowl with brown sugar, honey, lemon juice, and cinnamon; mix everything together and let it rest.
Roll out the puff pastry and use a 4-inch diameter cutter to create circles.
Make cuts on one half of each puff pastry circle (photo 1). Then fold the uncut part of the dough over the cut part to form a half-moon (photo 2).
Fill with a teaspoon of cream and a teaspoon of apples (photo 3). Fold the two corners of the puff pastry inward (photo 4) to form a shell (photo 5).
Place the shells on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake the shells in a preheated oven at 428°F for 10-15 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve with a dusting of powdered sugar. Enjoy!
