Delicious dessert featuring puff pastry filled with a creamy cheesecake mixture and sweet apple filling.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 sheets puff pastry (thawed)
  • 1 large apple (peeled and diced)
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 4 oz cream cheese (softened)
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 egg (beaten)
  • Powdered sugar (for dusting)

Instructions

  1. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine diced apples, brown sugar, cinnamon, and lemon juice. Cook for 5–7 minutes until apples are softened but not mushy. Set aside to cool.
  2. In a bowl, beat softened cream cheese with granulated sugar and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Refrigerate until ready to assemble.
  3. Unfold the thawed puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface. Cut each sheet into 6 equal rectangles, giving you 12 pieces in total.
  4. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of cheesecake mixture onto 6 of the pastry rectangles. Top with a spoonful of apple filling. Brush the edges with beaten egg, then place another pastry rectangle on top. Use a fork to seal the edges.
  5. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Place assembled pies on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush tops with egg wash and bake for 18–20 minutes, or until puffed and deeply golden.
  6. Let pies cool slightly before dusting with powdered sugar. Serve warm for maximum gooeyness.

Notes

  • Make sure the cream cheese is softened for easy mixing.
  • Variation: Add nuts or raisins to the apple filling for extra texture.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
