Puff Pastry Kanzi Apple “Doughnuts”

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 large KANZI® apples

  • 1 puff pastry sheet, thawed at room temperature for 5-10 minutes

  • 2 tbsp white sugar

  • 1 tbsp ground cinnamon

  • 1 egg

  • 1 tbsp water (cool or room temperature)

INSTRUCTIONS

Makes 10-15 donuts

  1. Preheat your oven to 200°C.
  2. On a clean chopping board, slice the apples horizontally through the core into slices approximately 0.5cm thick, yielding about 10-15 slices.
  3. Use a small cookie cutter to remove the cores from the apple slices, forming a donut ring shape.
  4. Combine the white sugar and ground cinnamon in a shallow bowl.
  5. Dip each apple ring into the cinnamon-sugar mixture, ensuring they're evenly coated.
  6. Cut the puff pastry into strips roughly 2cm wide using a knife.
  7. Wrap each apple ring with the puff pastry strips. You'll need about 3 strips per apple ring for complete coverage, or 2 strips to leave some gaps. Place each ring onto a lined baking tray.
  8. Lightly beat the egg with the water, then brush it over the puff pastry. Sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon-sugar on top.
  9. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the puff pastry turns a golden brown colour.
  10. Serve immediately, dusted with icing sugar.
