About the dish

"Epler i slåbrok" – apples in a morning robe – is a classic still made today. Erken uses puff pastry made from her own recipe on page 15 and garnishes with blanched, finely chopped almonds.

How to make it

  1. 1

    Prepare the apples

    Core and peel the apples. Fill the opening with sugar.

  2. 2

    Wrap the apples

    Roll out the puff pastry about 3 mm thick and cut it into square pieces. Place an apple in the center of each piece and fold the pastry up around the apple.

  3. 3

    Coat

    Blanch and finely chop the almonds and mix them with 1 tablespoon sugar. Brush or dip the apples in beaten egg and turn them in the almond mixture. Cinnamon can be used instead of almonds.

  4. 4

    Bake

    Place the apples on a greased baking sheet with the seam side down. Bake about 30 minutes in a hot oven (about 200 °C (390 °F)), until the pastry is golden and the apples are tender.

Changes from the original

The puff pastry is given as ready-made puff pastry with an estimated quantity (the original refers to its own recipe on page 15). "Thickness of a knife's back" has been converted to about 3 mm, and "hot oven" to about 200 °C (390 °F).
