Mini apple croissants

These mini apple croissants are made in next to nothing and are a wonderful snack or dessert, especially when you have limited time to cook.

Here's the how to:



Ingredients (for 8 mini croissants):

• 1 sheet of round puff pastry
• 2 - 3 apples (depending on size)
• 1 egg
• sugar (white or yellow, your choice)
• powdered cinnamon

First spread the puff pastry sheet and cut it in eight slices (it's a bit like slicing a pizza):

In the center of each slice place bits of apple and sprinkle them with sugar and cinnamon:

Fold the sides of each slice inward and roll it from the edge to the center - encasing the apple within and giving it a croissant-like shape (it doesn't turn exactly like a croissant because your are folding the edges inward, but it's fairly similar).

Place each finished croissant on a greased oven tray:

Whisk the egg and "paint" the top of the croissants with it:

Sprinkle with a bit more cinnamon and place in the oven for about 15 - 20 minutes, until they have acquired a lovely golden color:

I personally like to eat them still slightly warm, but you can also let them cool completely before serving, they are delicious in any way.

Eat well and enjoy spring!
