Dessert pastries - Dessertbakelser (retro)

DESSERT PASTRIES
Dessertbakelser

Approx 20 pastries

Dough:
1/3 cup almonds
3 bitter almonds
3½ oz butter or margarine
1/3 cup sugar
¾ cup flour
½ tablespoon potato starch
1 egg yolk

Filling and decoration:
¾ cup heavy cream
2 teaspoons vanilla sugar
2 apples, sliced
some white wine
sugar
red jelly or jam


Scald and grind the almonds (or buy it already done, at the time of this retro recipe you couldn’t do that, or at least it wasn’t that common). Work all the ingredients to a dough. Brush small, pleated baking tins really well with melted fat and dress them with the dough. Bake at 390F for about 10 minutes. Unmould when slightly cooled.

Fill them with a layer of cooled, thin apple slices, boiled in white wine and sugared to taste. Cover the apples with whipped cream flavoured with vanilla sugar. Put on a dab of red jelly or firm jam.

Enjoy!
