Apple and blueberry jalousie

Running out of ideas for dessert? Keep puff pastry in the freezer for this delicious apple and blueberry pastry.


Ingredients 

•  400g can pie apple, drained
•  125g fresh blueberries
•  1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
•  2 1/2 tablespoons caster sugar
•  2 sheets frozen ready-rolled puff pastry, halved
•  2 tablespoons almond meal (ground almonds)
•  1 egg, lightly beaten
•  Icing sugar mixture and whipped cream, to serve

Method

Step 1
Preheat oven to 200°C/180°C fan-forced. Line a large baking tray with baking paper. Combine apple, blueberries, cinnamon and 2 tablespoons sugar in a bowl.
Step 2
Place 2 pastry pieces 5cm apart on prepared tray. Sprinkle each with half the almond meal, allowing a 1.5cm border around edges. Divide apple mixture between pastry pieces.
Step 3
Roll out 1 remaining pastry piece until 1cm longer on all sides. Carefully fold in half lengthways. Using a small sharp knife, cut 6cm-long slits along folded edge, 1.5cm apart. Unfold pastry. Place over 1 pastry piece. Press edges to seal. Brush with egg. Sprinkle with half the remaining sugar. Repeat with remaining pastry piece, egg and remaining sugar.
Step 4

Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until golden and puffed. Dust with icing sugar. Serve with cream.
