Instructions

Take the puff pastry out to thaw.

Add apples, lemon zest and juice, pumpkin pie spice, and sugar to a pot. Cook for 6–8 minutes until softened, but don’t over-reduce.

Let cool completely.

Add a scoop of filling to one end of each puff pastry, fold it over, trim any excess, and optionally crimp with a fork.

Freeze until ready to bake.

Bake or air fry at 400°F for 8–10 minutes, until golden brown.

Let cool slightly then top with the royal icing if using it.
