Apple Pockets
A seasonal favorite incorporating granny smith apples.
INGREDIENTS
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 lb granny smith apples, peeled, cored and sliced thin
- ¼ cup sugar
- ½ cup golden raisins
- 1 lemon, juiced
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 package large square egg roll skins
- ¼ cup melted butter
- confectioners’ sugar
INSTRUCTIONS
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Heat a large sauté pan over medium heat. Add the butter and melt. Add the apples, sugar, raisins, lemon juice and cinnamon and sauté until the apples are tender, about 8 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Lay an egg roll skin on a flat surface with 1 of the points facing you so it looks like a diamond. Lay another egg roll skin on top of this one to create a diamond shape. Place 1/4 cup of the filling in the center of the wrappers and gather the egg roll skin around the filling to create a pouch. Tie the pouch with kitchen string and place on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Repeat with the rest of the ingredients.
- Brush the pouches with the melted butter and bake for 10 to 15 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
- Remove from the oven and dust with confectioners’ sugar.
