These Vegan Apple Puff Pastries are full of delicious sweet flavour and are perfect for if you have apples that need using.
This was my first attempt at making vegan puff pastry, or any puff pastry for that matter. Although the pastry didn’t puff quite as much as I had hoped for, it still tasted great!
I used vegan margarine for this recipe. As you will want your butter or margarine to be quite hard I put the margarine in the freezer for 20 minutes before mixing it into this recipe. This definitely helped to keep the margarine hard during the mixing process.
It is better to make these squares with slightly older apples as they will be softer. That makes this the perfect recipe for when you have apples that are getting a bit old and need using.
This recipe makes 6 apple squares. If they are kept covered they will last about 3-5 days.
Although this recipe takes a little longer to make, the end result is so worth it! They taste great, and all your guests will love them.

Apple Puff Pastry - Makes 6
Ingredients
Pastry:
1 ¼ Cup Plain Flour
¾ Cup Butter/Marge, Chilled, Cubed
⅓ Cup Ice Water
Apple Topping:
2 tbsp Caster Sugar
1 tsp Cinnamon
1 Medium Apple, Sliced
2 tbsp Vegan Milk
Method
First, prepare the puff pastry.
If using soft margarine, put it in the freezer for 20 minutes before stirring into flour.
Sift the flour into a large bowl and add the butter.
Use a fork to mix together to form crumbs.
Add the water and stir gently.
Wrap in cling film and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
On a well floured surface, roll the dough into a rectangle.
Fold the top third of the rectangle down, then fold the bottom third up to cover the top third.
Roll out the pastry again and fold into thirds again.
Repeat the rolling and folding for about 4-6 times.
Wrap the dough in cling film and refrigerate for another 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 200c.
In a small bowl combine the sugar and cinnamon.
Roll out the dough into a rectangle and cut into 6 even squares.
Use a fork to prick each square several times.
Brush the milk over the pastry and sprinkle the sugar and cinnamon on top.
Lay about 4 apple slices on each square and sprinkle a small bit of cinnamon and sugar over them.
Bake for 20-25 minutes.
Serve
Enjoy!
