Popeyes Apple Pie Recipe
Popeyes is famous for its crunchy fried chicken but they beat every other restaurant when it comes to desserts.
Ingredients
- 1 Puff pastry
- Vegetable oil for frying
- 2 tbsp Margarine or butter
- 1 tsp Cornstarch
- 4 medium Apples
- ½ cup Raw can sugar
- 1 tsp Pumpkin spice
- Eggs (for egg wash)
- 1 cup Cinnamon sugar (for topping)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Wash and peel the apples. Dice them and add them to a bowl.
- Add butter, pumpkin spice, sugar, and cornstarch to the diced apples. Mix them well together.
- Flour a plain surface lightly. On this surface, roll the puff pastry and cut it to have 8 equal pieces.
- On parchment paper, place four pieces of the rolled puff pastry. On this add ¼ cup of apple mixture on each piece and eventually cover it with the other four pieces so that the apple mixture is sandwiched between the two pieces of puff pastry.
- On the top of the 4 pastries, score them with a fork or knife.
- Brush the scored pastries with egg wash.
- Place the pastries in a preheated oven and bake so that they acquire a golden brown color. It will take approximately 17 minutes.
- Take a large skillet and add vegetable oil to it. Heat the oil. Then fry the pies in this oil for a minute on each side. Wait till light golden brown color.
- Take out the fried pies from the skillet. Place them on a paper towel so that extra oil is absorbed in the paper towel.
- Place the warm pies in a dish and sprinkle the cinnamon sugar topping on them. Delicious Popeyes apple pies are ready. Help yourselves. Bon appetit!
