APPLE PINWHEELS

PictureLiberty Apple Tree in Grove
There are still so many apples in the Grove to make into goodies and to preserve. We had an incredible crop this year; from just our two trees. One is a Liberty and one is a Combination tree. We traded our surplus for herbs, tomatoes, beans and even a pumpkin with our neighbours. We made apple cider; apple, cucumber & havarti sandwiches; an apple pie for Thanksgiving and ate our requisite "an apple a day keeps the doctor away". Gave away many more apples to friends, family & neighbours. But still ... there are apples.

Here's an incredibly simple and delicious recipe. A nice dessert and they are also small enough for snacks and lunchboxes. I love vintage cookbooks and as I liked the ingredients in two recipes; I decided to combine them together into one. The original recipes were for Apple Pinwheels and Apple Triangles; but they look more like pinwheels to me; so I'll go with that name. 

What you need:
1 package of butter puff pastry
2 medium sized apples
2 tbsp sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp cloves
dash nutmeg
1 egg white
drop of lemon, butter, water

This 1969 cook book was a "side of the road" find. Near by; we have a repurposing store. Sometimes they set out free items. Very well-loved, needed taping & lots of food stains; but I can see why! It's very comprehensive and was obviously someone's trusty go-to manual.

This 1954 cook book is comprised of a series of smaller full colour magazine style cook books. Perhaps it was a collect-as-you-go? I found it at a hospital thrift store for $2!

​3. Roll the apples chunks into the moistened sugar & spice mix and heap into little piles on the pastry squares. Sprinkle with almost all of remaining sugar & spice mix. Add a tiny pat of butter on top of the apples and fold the pastry up over the apples, pinching and sealing. Then prick the tops a couple of times with a fork. Brush the tops lightly with a bit of egg white and sprinkle with last of the dry sugar & spice mix.
What you do:
1. Follow instructions for defrosting your package of butter puff pastry. When ready, gentle unroll onto cutting board and cut into squares approximately 4 inches square.

2. Peel, core & cut the apples into small chunks. Place in a little bowl of cool water, with a drop of lemon, and set aside. Separate the egg white into a separate bowl and set aside. Mix together the sugar and spices in a separate bowl; then divide into two bowls. Add a tablespoon of water to one bowl. ​
4. Place on a non-stick baking pan (or lined with parchment paper) and bake for about 20 to 25 minutes at 350​°. Let cool on a wire rack.

I set rates manually for each item for maximum estimated shipping. Any overage over actual cost (above $2), paid by you, will be refunded at the time of shipping.

Disclaimer: Many of the items sold are vintage or pre-loved. Quality of vintage items vary with the manufacturing methods available at the time of production. They are not made to current standards of manufacturing ... and in my opinion, that is usually a good thing! They tend to be higher quality, last longer and include more attention to detail than today's products. However, safety standards do change over time, items do deteriorate with age, and it is up to the customer to decide how they will use each product.
