apple puff pastries.

so.........still no oven. and hob. and sink. but we're hanging on and patience is a virtue! our house extension is coming along and there is a glimpse of the roof finally coming on. it's all about finding whatevers in the fridge and manipulating it in some way or form till it's edible these days. if you can't find bread, well make-do with instant noodles.

and as for today, i discovered a block of frozen puff pastry and used it to my advantage! this is so so simple to make, considering i managed making it in the one liveable room of the entire downstairs right now.

simply roll your puff out thinly on a floured surface, cut into squares, spread whatever you find on it (nutella/peanut butter/apricot jam), arrange some thinly sliced apples and dust some cinnamon sugar if you're feeling extra fancy! bake for 18-20 mins at 210C until golden and puffed up; finish with a dusting of icing sugar!

i've been missing out on a lot of baking recently, and so took up this rare opportunity to experiment with different pastry flavours, cuts, folds and designs (inspired by pinterest ofc!). what a blessing to be able to have the aroma of fresh pastry wafting round the house after far too long!
