Ingredients
- 2 rolls puff pastry (rectangular)
- 1 apple
- 2 teaspoons sugar
- Half teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 jar apricot jam (or flavor of choice)
Tools
- Bowl
- Cupcake liners
- Baking tray
- Knife
Steps
First, wash, peel, and cut an apple into small chunks.
Place in a bowl, sweeten to taste with one or two teaspoons of sugar.
Flavor with half a teaspoon of ground cinnamon (only if you like).
Mix and set aside.
Unroll the rectangular puff pastry on a work surface.
Using a spatula, spread the jam over the entire surface
I chose apricot, but any other flavor works.
Spread all the apple chunks on top, distributing them over the surface.
Leave just a few millimeters free around the entire perimeter of the pastry.
Place the second roll of puff pastry on top, sealing the edges well.
With a sharp knife, cut the pastry vertically into strips of the desired width.
Roll each strip onto itself until you get a swirl.
Place each swirl in a parchment-lined muffin cup and then in a muffin tin or tray.
If you don’t have parchment liners, grease and flour a muffin tin for easier baking.
Don’t worry if some filling spills out while rolling the strip, it’s normal!
Once all the swirls are rolled, bake them in a preheated static oven at 350°F for about 30 minutes.
When you have beautifully golden apple swirls, remove them from the oven and let them cool on a rack.
If you used parchment liners, remove them before the swirls become cold.
You can dust the apple and jam swirls with powdered sugar or enjoy them as they are!
