Preparation
1
Peel the apples. Cut into quarters and remove the seeds. Cut the quarters into wide slices. Move the apples to a salad bowl.
2
Add the brown sugar (minus a tablespoon), vanilla-flavored sugar, lemon juice, and Armagnac to the apples. You can use rum or Calvados instead of Armagnac. Mix together.
3
Roll out the puff pastry (without removing the paper) on the baking sheet.
4
Spread the apples evenly on top of the pastry. Leave a 1.5 inch border of pastry along the sides.
5
Cover the apples with the second puff pastry.
6
Carefully seal the two puff pastry crusts together. Using a knife or scissors, cut a small cross in the middle of the dessert. Sprinkle a tablespoon of sugar on top and cook for 30 minutes at 460 °F.
7
Serve warm.
Pair with
Apple juice, Côteaux-de-l'Aubance, and Clairette-de-Die.
