Instructions caramelized apples with puff pastry squares – easy and quick dessert

  • Wash, peel and cut 5 medium apples into not too small cubes and set aside.
  • In a non-stick pan pour 4 tablespoons of sugar and turn on the flame. Melt the sugar and wait until it turns golden brown. Be careful not to burn the caramel or it will become bitter. Lower the heat and add a spoonful of butter. Stir quickly and add your apples.
  • Add a pinch of salt, spices and 2 tablespoons of water. Mix well and cook over medium-low heat until the apples are tender.
  • Pour the apples and the sauce into the pyrex or cast iron dish and allow to cool slightly. Meanwhile unroll the puff pastry and using a sharp knife or a pizza cutter divide it into many small squares. Cover the apples with the pieces of puff pastry and sprinkle with some sugar. Bake in a preheated static oven at 200 ° C for 20-25 minutes or until the puff pastry turns golden.
  • Remove from the oven and serve after a few minutes with vanilla ice cream or once cold with some powder sugar.

Store in the refrigerator and eat within a short period of time as the puff pastry tends to soften in the refrigerator and loses its friability. You can reheat the dessert the next day in the oven to make it hot again.
