I’ve been practising for our WI Cake & Bake Night this week – Our theme for next week’s get-together is Pastry. To be honest, there’s no shortage of ideas that I could use but once I started mooching in my recipes I came across Palmiers – The trouble I had was choosing Plain Sugar, Plain Cinnamon but Apple & Cinnamon Palmiers won!
Another crazily easy recipe but if you are as busy as I am at the moment, you may be glad of it. Mr C came home from work and said “wow’ when he saw these. He obviously doesn’t remember watching how easy and quick they are to make from last time.
Ingredients:
- 1 pack Chilled Puff Pastry
- 1 Large Apple -I like tangy so use a Braeburn
- 3/4 tbsp ground cinnamon
- 2 tbsp Caster Sugar
Method:
- Peel the apple and grate it.
- Squeeze all of the juice out of the grated apple and dab with kitchen roll – you need it to be quite dry for this recipe.
- Roll out the pastry and sprinkle the apple evenly all over it.
- Mix together the sugar and the cinnamon in a small bowl and sprinkle this over the pastry and apple evenly too.
- Roll the long sides of the pastry in towards each other so they eventually meet in the middle.
- Cut into 1cm pieces and lay down on the oven trays – leave 2-3cm gap to allow for room to spread.
- Place back in the freezer for 20-30 mins.
- Bake at 200C for 12-15 (turning after approx 9 mins) until each side is crispy and golden.
Hi Helen

As far as I’m concerned – cinnamon and apples are ALWAYS wonderful together
These palmiers (we call them here pig’s ears) wont’ last long with my family 🙂
Hi thanks so much for joining in – Palmiers will forever now be know as Pigs Ears! Love it x
Wow these look fab – I have had a bunch of pastry out making pasties the last week or so, but we’re over pasties and have puff pastry left over, so these might be a great way to use it up! Thanks for sharing x
Wow! Those look incredible! I wish I could make them but I really can’t be bothered to faff around making gluten-free puff pastry. I am far too lazy!!

Hi Helen, thank you so much for the feature. It has been a busy month and I only managed to check back on all the baking theme events recently.. Gosh, I realised that I have missed so much! Anyway, it was my pleasure to join in Bake of the Week. Hope I’ll have time for more bakes that fits Bake of the Week future themes.. Thanks again!
