Apple Pie Danish

By Txwirlwind

Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon butter
• 3-4 apples-I used golden delicious for these
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• Crust
• 1/2 cup cold butter, cut into chunks
• 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1 egg-separated
• 1/4 cup milk
• 1 tablespoon cold water
• extra sugar for sprinkling
• Glaze
• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 4 tablespoons cream or milk
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Preparation

Step 1

Melt butter in a small frying pan. Add in brown sugar and cinnamon. Core and peel apples, chop into 1/2 inch pieces. Place apples in frying pan. Stir to coat apples with butter mixture. Simmer over medium heat until mixture starts to bubble, continue to cook for about 5 more minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
Combine flour, salt and sugar in a large mixing bowl. Cut in butter with a pastry blender. Combine egg yolk with milk and stir into flour until all your dry mix is incorporated.
Roll dough out onto a well floured surface. Cut dough into 6 rough squares. Transfer squares to a lightly greased baking tray (or line with parchment paper.) Divide apples with just a bit of the juice between the 6 dough squares. You want to run your apples diagonally across from one corner to the opposite corner.
Fold over opposite sides to the middle, and using a dab of water, press those top corners together to secure. Make an egg wash, combining egg white with 1 tablespoon of water. Brush tops of danish with the egg wash. Sprinkle top with sugar if desired.
Bake in a preheated 375 degree oven for 25-30 minutes, until crust is a golden brown.
Combine glaze ingredients, stirring until smooth and a drizzle consistency. Drizzle over warm danishes and enjoy!
