Why We Love This Recipe
- Tastes just like apple pie. The crust is flakey and buttery, and the inside is a delicious soft baked apple.
- The cinnamon sugar, nutmeg mix gives it the perfect flavors of fall.
- Hand-held – need I say more?
Ingredients
- Puff pastry
- Apples – my preference is always Pink Lady Apples
- Sugar
- Ground cinnamon
- Ground nutmeg
- Egg whites or one egg beaten
- Lemon and water (for soaking apple slices so they don’t turn brown)
Let’s Make Baked Apple Pie Rings
- Thaw puff pastry if using frozen.
- Peel and core the apples.
- Slice into rounds.
- Use a 1-1/4 inch diameter cookie cutter to open the core slice a little larger.
- Place the apple slices into a bowl, cover with water, and add the juice of 1 lemon.
- Unfold the puff pastry and roll it until it is slightly larger.
- Cut the puff pastry into ¾ inch strips.
- Mix the cinnamon, sugar, and nutmeg in a shallow dish and set aside.
- Pat the apple slices dry with a paper towel and dust them with a bit of cinnamon sugar.
- Wrap strips of the puff pastry (3-4 strips/apple ring) around each apple ring.
- Brush the wrapped apple rings with egg wash on both sides.
- Dip the rings into cinnamon sugar.
- Bake at 400° for 20-25 minutes until puff pastry is flaky and light golden brown.
- Cool for 10 minutes before serving.
Krazy Kitchen Mom Tips
- I use a 1-1/4 inch-diameter circle cookie cutter to cut the hole in the apples after I core them. You want the circle to be large enough to thread the puff pastry through.
- Don’t skip the egg wash; it makes the cinnamon sugar stick to the puff pastry.
- All ovens are different so please watch the oven closely while these are baking as they may need less or more time.

Can these be frozen to enjoy later?
I can’t say for sure because I haven’t tried it. They go so fast in my house that I never have leftovers. Let me know if you try it.
Thank you for this recipe. I made it today first time. It is so delicious! I baked it 375F for 20 minutes but it was a bit underbaked so I put them back for 14 more minutes. Definitely will make it again . I sent the recipe to my friend to try .
Thanks for letting me know. So glad you liked it!
