Apple and Egg Pastries That Melt in Your Mouth

Delicious Apple and Egg Pastries ready to melt in your mouth

Ingredients

  • 1 medium apple, peeled and diced (about 150 g)
  • 1 large egg
  • ½ cup (120 ml) milk
  • 1 ½ cups (180 g) all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons (30 g) sugar
  • ½ teaspoon (2 g) cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon (5 g) baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon (1 g) salt
  • 4 tablespoons (56 g) unsalted butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the diced apple, sugar, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Mix well and set aside.
  3. In a separate large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and remaining salt.
  4. In another bowl, beat the egg and add the milk. Combine this with the dry ingredients, mixing until just blended. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Pour the melted butter into the batter and gently fold it in. Your mixture should be thick and lumpy.
  6. Scoop about a tablespoon of the batter onto the prepared baking sheet. Use the back of the spoon to create a small indentation in the center.
  7. Fill each indentation with a spoonful of the apple mixture.
  8. Cover with another dollop of batter, ensuring the apples are sealed inside. Repeat for all pastries, leaving space between each.
  9. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean when inserted.
  10. Allow them to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Recipe Notes

  • Choose a crisp apple variety such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp for the best flavor and texture.
  • For extra flavor, sprinkle some crushed nuts or raisins mixed with the apples.
  • If you’re short on time, store-bought pastry dough can be used instead of the batter.
