Apple pies are very tasty and aromatic. In summer and autumn, I use fresh apples, and for the winter I prepare a thick apple filling with spices and zest.
Cooking description:
The apple filling is thick, aromatic and moderately sweet. Can be used for puff, yeast or shortcake pies. If desired, the apple blank can be combined with nuts or seeds. Apples prepared in this way are just a godsend at the moment when there is a minimum of time for baking. Put the finished puff pastry on a baking sheet, add the filling from the jar and send it to the oven. Just like that, simple and delicious!
