Total time: 35 min
Yield: 10 servings
Ingredients: 1 egg; 60 g sugar; 2 tbsp oil; 100 g plain yogurt; 1 tsp vanillin (or vanilla extract); 70 g melted butter; Pinch of salt; 350 g flour; 6 g baking powder; 2 apples; 50 g walnuts (chopped); 1 tsp cinnamon; 2 tbsp honey (or sugar); 1 tbsp jam; Powdered sugar (for topping)

Directions

1. Step

In a bowl, combine the sugar, vanillin, melted butter, egg, and salt. Add the oil and yogurt, then mix well. Gradually add the flour and baking powder to form a soft, pliable dough. Place the dough in the fridge to chill for 5 minutes.

2. Step

Peel and chop the apples into small pieces. In a pan, cook the apples with cinnamon, butter, and honey (or sugar) over low heat for 5-6 minutes. Stir in the chopped walnuts and jam. Set the filling aside to cool.

3. Step

Roll out the chilled dough into a flat sheet and use a round cutter to cut out shapes. Place a spoonful of the apple filling in the center of each round piece of dough. Fold the dough over the filling and seal the edges. Arrange the filled pastries on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 10-15 minutes, or until golden brown. Allow to cool slightly, then dust with powdered sugar before serving.
