Description
Flaky puff pastry filled with an easy juicy cinnamon apple compote and topped with a brown sugar glaze that is dairy-free and can be made vegan! An amazing recipe by @brightmomentco.
Ingredients
- 2 sheets puff pastry (thawed)
- 5 tbsp MALK oat milk
- 3 large Honeycrisp apples (finely diced)
- 1 tbsp flour
- 1.5 tsp vanilla
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
- 1 pinch salt
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
The Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 400F. Line a large baking pan with parchment paper.
- In a saucepan over medium high heat, combine the diced apples, flour, 3 tablespoons MALK Organics Oat Milk, 1 teaspoon vanilla, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, nutmeg, and a pinch of salt. Mix well.
- Cover the saucepan with a lid to cook on medium heat for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until apples are juicy and tender. Remove from heat to cool.
- Divide each thawed puff pastry sheet into 9 equal-sized rectangles, so you have a total of 18 rectangles.
- Place half of the rectangles on the prepared pan.
- Scoop 2-3 tablespoons of the apple filling into the center. Use the remaining rectangles to sandwich in the fillings. Seal together along the edges with a fork.
- Brush with more oat milk or an egg wash.
- Bake for 10-15 minutes, turning the pan halfway through baking, until flaky and golden brown.
- To make the brown sugar glaze, combine the powdered sugar, brown sugar, remaining 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla, and 1 tablespoon oat milk. Stir together until thick and smooth, adding more oat milk as needed.
- Spoon the brown sugar glaze on top of the apple hand pies to enjoy!
