These tasty treats were a brain child of mine, born of my incessant sweet tooth and the luck of having apples, raisins, and walnuts on hand. Wrapped in a delicate pocket of crispy phyllo dough, the combination is amazingly delicious.
These don’t keep well, so you’ll want to serve and enjoy right away. But if you find yourself with leftovers, store them in the refrigerator and reheat them when you’re ready to enjoy again.
Ingredients:
3 large apples
½ cup chopped walnuts
3 tablespoons raisins
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon flour
1 ½ teaspoon cinnamon
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons brown sugar
½ teaspoon clove
1 roll phyllo dough
Preheat oven to 375℉. Peel, core, and dice the apples, place in bowl with salt, flour, sugar, cinnamon, and clove. Stir to coat evenly.
Melt butter over medium heat in pot. Add apples and cook for about 7 minutes, until apples become tender. Add raisins and walnuts, remove from heat and set aside.
Prepare your phyllo dough by unrolling and covering with a damp paper towel.
In place about ¼ cup to ⅓ cup of apple filling in each square of phyllo dough, fold up and place on parchment paper lined baking sheet. Repeat filling and folding until all the filling is used.
Bake for 8 minutes, serve warm.
These are great with a drizzle of caramel sauce, with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, or with a sprinkle of powdered sugar.
