Ingredients
  

  • 2 sheets Puff Pastry thawed as per package instructions
  • 2 cups Apple peeled, cored and diced
  • 2 tablespoons Granulated Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon Lemon Zest
  • 2 tablespoons Flour
  • 1/2 cup Pecans
  • 1/4 cup Light Brown Sugar
  • 3 tablespoons Shortbread Cookie Crumbs
  • 1 Egg beaten, with 1 teaspoon water

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375°F.

  • In a small bowl, combine pecans, brown sugar and shortbread cookie crumbs. Set aside.
  • Roll out one sheet of puff pastry to a rectangle measuring 10-inches by 12-inches. Sprinkle with half of the nut mixture and place half of the apples on top.
