- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 4 sheets frozen puff pastry, thawed
- 4 tablespoons melted butter
- 2 tablespoons apple butter
- 3 cups chopped honeycrisp apples
Vanilla Glaze
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup whole milk
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1-3 teaspoons instant coffee powder (optional)
- flaky sea salt
Instructions
- 1. Preheat the oven to 425° F. Arrange 12-15 paper cupcake liners on a baking sheet. 2. Mix the cinnamon and sugar together in a bowl.3. Lay one pastry sheet flat on your counter. Brush with 2 tablespoons melted butter, 1 tablespoon apple butter, then sprinkle with 1/2 of the cinnamon sugar. Arrange 1/2 of the apples over the sugar. Place a second sheet of pastry directly over the apples to cover. Gently press down to seal everything inside. Roll the dough into a log, like a cinnamon roll. 4. Cut the log into 6-8 rounds, placing each in the prepared paper cupcake liners. Repeat with the remaining pastry/apples. Use the palm of your hand to smoosh the round down to about 1/2 it's size (see photos). Sprinkle the tops lightly with any remaining cinnamon sugar. 5. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the pastry is deep golden brown. 6. To make the glaze, whisk all ingredients in a bowl, adding additional milk as needed to thin. Dip or drizzle the glaze onto the fritters. Eat warm. And enjoy.
