Method-
Preheat the oven to 375 F.
-
Peel, core and chop the apples to about 1/2 inch cubes.
-
Place them in a bowl and add the cinnamon, sugar, and flour.
-
Give it a good mix and keep it aside for about 30 mins so that all the flavors can come together.
-
In another bowl combine all the ingredients for the nut layer and keep aside. Instead of chopping the nuts gave it a pulse in the mixer.
-
Thaw the pastry sheet to room temperature and roll it out on a well floured surface to about 12 x 14 inches.
-
Sprinkle the nut layer on the sheet covering one half of the sheet vertically. Be sure to leave about an inch on the sides.
-
Then layer it with the prepared apple mixture.
-
Life up one side of the pastry sheet and start rolling it into a log.
-
Lay it on the baking sheet lined with parchment paper seam side down. Make sure to pinch the ends and tuck them under the log.
-
Brush the top with egg wash. (Break open one egg and add about a tsp of water. Mix well and the egg wash is ready). Look below for substitutions instead of egg wash.
-
Make several slices on top with a sharp knife for all the steam to escape. (This is very important if you do not want an explosion inside your oven).
-
Put it in the oven and let it bake for about 40 to 45 mins or until golden brown.
-
Cool it slightly on a wire rack.
-
Serve it warm with a dollop of vanilla ice cream or with whipped cream.
Note:
-
This could be made with any fruits like peaches, mixed berries and so on. So whatever is in season use it.
-
This could be made egg less by using milk or melted butter as a glaze.
