Ingredients

1 sheet puff pastry (all-butter recommended)

2 apples (thinly sliced, use Granny Smith and Honeycrisp)

3 tablespoons brown sugar

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 tablespoon unsalted butter (cut into small bits)

1 egg (for egg wash)

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1 tablespoon milk

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract


Instructions

1. Peel, core, and thinly slice apples. Toss with lemon juice, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Let sit for 10 minutes.

2. Roll out puff pastry on parchment paper. Spoon apple filling down the center. Leave sides clean.

3. Fold pastry sides over the apples in a braided or overlapped pattern.

4. Brush with egg wash and dot with butter.

5. Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 25-30 minutes until golden and puffed.

6. In a small bowl, whisk powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth.

7. Drizzle glaze over warm kringle before serving.

Notes

Let the apple mixture sit for 10 minutes so the juices start to release before baking.

For extra crispiness, chill the kringle in the fridge for 10 minutes before baking.
