Ingredients
Dough
- 200 g butter (Unsalted and an extra knob)
- 200 g white soft sugar (white)
- 400 g self-raising flour
- 1 egg (beaten)
- 8 g vanilla sugar
- salt (to taste)
Filling
- 800 g apples (sweet and sour)
- 75 g sugar (finely)
- 2 tsp cinnamon powder
- 120 g almond paste
- 6 lotus biscuits
Instructions
- Break 1 egg and beat it. Peel 800 g apples, remove the cores and cut them into small pieces. Crumble 6 lotus biscuits. Preheat the oven to 170 ℃
- Put the apple pieces in a bowl and add 75 g sugar and 2 tsp cinnamon powder. Mix everything well together.
- Heat a frying pan over medium heat and melt the extra knob of butter. Add the apple pieces. Cook, stirring constantly, for about five minutes. Remove this mixture from the pan when the sugar is caramelized and the apple pieces have softened, and let it cool.
- Knead 200 g butter, 200 g white soft sugar, 400 g self-raising flour, half of 1 egg, 8 g vanilla sugar and salt into a firm dough. This can be done with a mixer with dough hooks or by hand.
- Dust the work surface with flour and roll out the dough into a sheet about 4 mm thick. Use a round cutter or baking ring (8-9 cm diameter) to cut 12 dough circles. The rest of the dough will be needed later for decoration.
- Place the dough circles on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Spread some of 120 g almond paste over each circle, half a tablespoon of lotus biscuits, and then place some apple pieces in the center of each dough circle.
- Roll out the remaining dough to a thickness of 4 mm. Cut strips 5 mm wide from the dough and lay them crosswise over the dough circles with the apple mixture.
- Press the ends together and brush the cookies with the remaining egg. Bake these treats for 25 minutes at 170 °C until cooked and golden brown.
