Press an apple slice onto each piece of dough and sprinkle with brown sugar.
Bake for 10 minutes.

Variations

Want to make these apple cinnamon pastries gluten-free or vegan? Here you go:

🌾 Gluten-Free Version: Simply replace the regular flour with a gluten-free flour blend. Ensure your baking powder is also gluten-free. The texture will remain fantastic!

🌱 Vegan Version: Substitute the butter with vegan butter or coconut oil, and the egg with a flax seed egg (1 tablespoon ground flax seeds mixed with 2.5 tablespoons water). 🥥🍯 Use maple syrup instead of honey for a completely vegan experience.

Enjoy these variations without compromising on taste!

Faq

  • How do I know if the dough is mixed enough?

    When your dough is smooth and no lumps of flour or wet spots remain, you're good to go!

  • Can I use different fruits?

    Absolutely! Pears work wonderfully, as do peaches or plums. Customize it to your taste!

  • Can I freeze the dough?

    Yes, you can freeze the dough for up to 3 months. Just make sure to wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and a freezer-safe bag.

  • What if my pastries turn out too flaky?

    Make sure not to overmix the dough, and ensure your butter is softened but not melted when you start.

  • Can I double the recipe?

    Yes, this recipe can easily be scaled up. Just double all the ingredients and make sure you have enough oven space!

  • How can I achieve a more golden-brown finish?

    Brushing a light egg wash on the pastries before baking will give them a beautiful golden-brown finish.
