How to Prepare the Puff Pastry Cake with Jam and Apples
Peel the apples and cut them into cubes.
In a bowl, add the apples, butter, sugar, lemon juice, and cinnamon to your taste. Mix with a spoon, then transfer everything into a non-stick pan.
Move to the stove and let the apples cook on low heat for about 5 minutes or until the apple is soft. Stir continuously.
Unroll a sheet of puff pastry and place it on a baking tray. Leave the parchment paper that comes with the pastry underneath.
Divide the sheet into 8 wedges.
On each wedge, add a teaspoon of jam and some caramelized apples. (Leave the edges of the wedges free).
Cover everything with a second puff pastry disc. Using your hands, seal the edges, then try to shape the filling with your hands. Cut the puff pastry again into 8 wedges.
Brush the surface of the pastry with a beaten egg yolk.
Bake in a preheated static oven at 356°F (180°C). Cook for about 20 minutes. Please check the cooking times based on your oven. The pastry should be golden and crispy.
Remove from oven, dust with powdered sugar, and serve yourself.
Storage
I recommend consuming the puff pastry cake with jam and apples on the same day, as the next day the pastry slightly loses its crispiness.
