Renetta apple is the queen of baking. This slightly tart apple with a compact pulp becomes extra-sweet and juicy during baking.

5-6 | tablespoons of sugar |

3 | yolks |

Custard: beat the eggs with the sugar, add the flour, mix and dilute with some warm milk.
Continue mixing while cooking, then take the custard away from the heat and pour it in a bowl.
Add the lemon zest.
Cover the custard tightly with plastic wrap and let cool down.
Peel, core and slice the apples.
Cut the puff pastry in 8 rectangular pieces. Spread a rich tablespoon of custard in the centre each rectangular.
Lay 4-5 slices of apple over the custard, then sprinkle with sugar. Beat the egg with the milk, and brush over the borders.
Close the pastry dough over the apples, and seal the little “package”. Brush again with the milk-egg mixture. Bake at 200° C for 18-20 minutes. When done, sprinkle with icing sugar.
