Preparation

Low

Preheat the oven to 180°C or 375°F. Peel the apples, slice them, and set them aside in a bowl of water with lemon juice. Roll out the puff pastry on a floured surface to form a rectangle of 30 cm by 40 cm. In a bowl, mix the drained apples with sugar, cinnamon, raisins, chopped nuts, and small cubes of butter. Place the apples along the length of the pastry and roll it up. Then seal the edges with beaten egg to ensure it sticks well and fold the ends down, sprinkling with sugar. Place in the preheated oven for 45 minutes or until golden brown. It can be served with vanilla ice cream.
