Instructions
- Begin by thawing the puff pastry on your counter. It should take about 20 minutes.
- Core the apples, and cut in half. Cut into slices (they should be fairly thin so they cook all the way through – use a mandolin if you have one).
- In a large bowl, combine the cinnamon, brown sugar and salt.
- Add the apple slices and mix well, making sure each slice is covered. Set aside for 5 minutes. Liquid will form in the bowl.
- Roll out your puff pastry to desired size, and using a pizza cutter – cut the edges (to fold over later – see pics)
- Drizzle a little of the liquid from the apples on top, then top with half of the pecans.
- Add the apple slices in even rows, overlapping a little.
- Top with remaining pecans.
- Bake at 425F for 18-22 minutes, or until the edges are a golden brown.
- Remove from oven and allow to cool.
To serve
- Cut into slices, top with whipped cream and sprinkle with cinnamon and pecans.
- Devour.

Notes
- Thaw the puff pastry on the counter while you heat the oven, and prep the apples, and we're in BUSINESS!!
- Cover the pasty while it thaws, it should only take about 20 mins, and should still be cold to touch.
- To get your apple slices perfect and thinly sliced, use a mandolin (affiliate link) if you have one.
- Keep a few chopped pecans handy for snacking for topping before serving. You can use a knife, or blitz in the food processor (affiliate link)
- Want a variation? Add raisins! Drizzle with a vanilla glaze!
- Make miniature versions: cut the pastry into 6-8 even slices, and top/bake as before.
