FFwD ~ Compote de Pommes ~ Two Ways

Apple sauce - two ways
but mine is only one ~ chunky applesauce!
opted not to turn it into apple butter


cos I am baking apple turnovers
with a pack of store bought puff pastry
 
really ugly handwork!
 
but it was good
also need to use my pack of store bought
sweet shortcrust pastry which (below) looks good
(L) was 2nd attempt which looks way better the (R)
but nvm how good they look
OMG they shrunk!
after pressing down the pastry with back of fork and up the sides (twice)
during the blind baking time (25mins) they sorta look presentable
 
using my 6" removable base pie pans
Top: applesauce topped with pastry cutouts
Bottom: stewed apple slices (in molasses brown sugar 
and splash of water) on top of a bed of applesauce
topped off with pastry cutouts.
~Update~
with the balance of the applesauce
I baked > THIS <
 using this individual brownie bowl pan

I did something similar with a tart, but I'm admiring those turnovers. Wish I'd done those... Good thing I have some apple sauce left over! Nice job, Emily!

If it wasn't my birthday week with so much cake eating I would have made the turnovers… yours look so good I may need to make them.

Look how puffy your puffs got. They look really good.

I'm the queen of 'ugly' pastries! :-)
Good thing I forget all about the looks once I put it on my mouth. Great job, Emily!

Wow! You put this applesauce to great use. I love the look of the tarts, even if the crust shrunk (I hate when that happens!).
