Ingredients
- 1 apple Cortland, or another good baking apple
- 1 heet puff pastry
- ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 beaten egg
Optional icing
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon water
Instructions
- Thaw the puff pastry. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Peel and core the apple, but leave it whole. A melon baller works well for removing the core.
- Mix the brown sugar and cinnamon together and put them on a small plate. Roll the apple in the sugar mixture.
- Place the apple in the middle of the puff pastry sheet. Cut the puff pastry sheet around the apple and wrap it over the top, covering it completely.
- Put the egg in a bowl and mix. Brush the egg mixture over the puff pastry.
- Bake the apple for 45 minutes, until it is golden brown.
- Mix the powdered sugar and water in a bowl to make the icing. Drizzle the icing over the apple.
Notes
- Puff pastry needs about 30-60 minutes at room temperature to thaw.
- If your apple is too wobbly inside the puff pastry, try slicing a thin layer off the bottom to create a flat surface.
- Since it is quite large, I consider this a dessert for 2. But you don't have to share if you don't want to!
- I always use Cortland apples because they are traditional. But any firm, tart apple that holds its shape well when baked will work. Granny Smith, Crispin, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn apples are all great options.
- You can wrap the apples up to 24 hours in advance and store them in the fridge until you're ready to bake. Just be sure to cover them tightly with plastic wrap so they don't dry out. When ready to bake, simply brush with egg wash and pop them in the oven as directed.

- You will probably have more puff pastry than you need to cover the apple. You can cut off the extra or just wrap it over the top of the apple in an extra layer.
