- 2 medium apples (peeled, cored, and thinly sliced)
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter (cut into small pieces)
Assembly:

- powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
Instructions

- Prepare the pastry: Roll out the puff pastry and cut into 4 rectangles. Toss sliced apples with sugar, cinnamon, and flour.
- Fill and bake: Place the apple mixture on pastry, fold edges, brush with egg wash, bake for 18–22 minutes until golden.
