As 'choux' pastry, this puff pastry also allows us to have more fun by vary them with as many kind of fruits, vegetables, jams, sausages, meat, cheese, and other more your favorite topping and filling.
From my Puff Pastry basic dough II last time, I made this apple pastry. I tell you, after you have basic dough of puff pastry in your refrig, you will have fun with it @(^_^)@ ... or I'm the only one who like to play with my dough..hehehhe..
For any pastry, I prefer making dough homemade rather than buy ready one. I don't know, for me homemade always better.
Maybe this apple pastry isn't the best good looking apple pastry you ever seen. But the taste is superb for me and my husband d(^_^)b.
