The quiche with preferably orange or apricot jam, is a delicious, creamy dessert with a hint of cinnamon. A rather quick and simple recipe with ready-to-use puff pastry. It also resembles the well-known and simple version of the apple strudel from Trentino. When a dessert is a must and you don’t have much time, and you need a safe bet, the apple quiche might be the right solution. Golden or Renette apples are the most recommended for this dessert, but if you have to use apples that are going bad, any type can be used.

Prepare the batter by dissolving the flour in the milk gradually. Dissolve the sugar in the batter. Pour it over the apples and finally sprinkle with cinnamon powder.
Fold the border over the apples as shown in the image and brush with beaten egg. Bake the “Apple Quiche” in the oven at 536°F for about 20/25 minutes and let it cool before serving.
