Delicious cinnamon apple breakfast swirls for a quick and tasty morning treat.
Ingredients:
  • 5.00 gm ground cinnamon
  • 32.00 gm brown sugar
  • 5.20 gm milk
  • 3 sheets butter puff-pastry
  • 50g unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored
  • 80g almond
  • 57.20 gm runny honey
  • 20.00 gm caster sugar
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 200°C and prepare a large baking tray by lining it with baking paper.
  • Combine cinnamon and brown sugar in a small bowl, mixing until fully incorporated. Set aside 1 tablespoon of the cinnamon sugar mixture.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the egg yolk and milk until fully combined. Set aside.
  • Place one pastry sheet on a clean board, brush generously with melted butter, and sprinkle with one-third of the cinnamon sugar. Add another pastry sheet and repeat to form 3 layers, ending with a layer of butter and cinnamon sugar. Dice the apple finely and sprinkle over the sugared pastry along with the majority of the flaked almonds. Roll up the pastry tightly to create a Swiss roll shape. Seal the long, open end by brushing with water. Apply the egg yolk mixture all over, saving some for later.
  • With a sharp knife, slice the roll into 2.5cm-thick pieces, then place them on the lined baking tray. Lay the spirals flat and brush with any leftover egg yolk mixture. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of cinnamon sugar and remaining almonds. Bake for 40 minutes until golden and cooked through.
  • Warm honey and vanilla in a small saucepan over medium-low heat for 1 minute, being cautious as honey can quickly boil if the heat is too high.
  • Take the cinnamon swirls out of the oven and generously brush them with the warm vanilla and honey mixture.
  • Sprinkle swirls with caster sugar and bake for another 5-10 minutes until pastry is golden, sticky, and crisp. Serve pastries warm or at room temperature.
