Sweet Apple Pies
Ingredients:
- 500g puff pastry
- 2 apples
- 100g apricot jam
- 1 egg
- 2 tablespoons milk
Directions:
1. Peel and cut the apples into thin slices.
2. Roll out the puff pastry using a rolling pin.
3. Using a cookie cutter, make discs (10 cm in diameter).
4. In the center of each disk of puff pastry, spread about a teaspoon of apricot jam.
5. Next, also place a slice of apple.
6. Brush the edges of the disks with a little water, then fold them over on themselves to make the shape of the calzones.
7. Seal the edge by pressing lightly with your fingers, then make a few small incisions with a knife.
8. Mix milk and egg and beat with a fork. Use this mixture to brush the surface of the calzones.
9. Using a knife, make a few patterns to decorate, just being careful not to cut the puff pastry.
10. Poke a few holes in the bottom of each calzone with a toothpick: this way the steam will escape during cooking.
11. Place the calzones on a baking sheet lined with baking paper, then bake at 175 degrees for 20 minutes in a ventilated oven
