Instructions

Preheat your oven to 200°C (180°C fan) or Gas Mark 6. Line a baking tray with parchment paper.

Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface. Cut it into six equal squares/rectangles.

Place a spoonful of the spiced apple mixture in the centre of each pastry square. Fold the corners of the pastry over the filling, pressing gently to seal the edges. You can also pinch the edges to create a decorative crimp.
Place the parcels on the prepared baking tray. Brush the tops with the beaten egg to give them a golden finish.
1 large egg
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.
Allow the parcels to cool slightly on a wire rack. Dust with icing sugar before serving, and if desired, pair with clotted cream, caramel sauce, or vanilla ice cream.
