Method

Make it happen

  1. 01

    Make rough puff pastry: mix flour, salt, cold butter and water so butter pieces remain; roll and fold into thirds four times, chilling between folds. Chill 30 minutes.

  2. 02

    Heat oven to 200°C fan. Mix diced apricots, sugar, ground almonds and vanilla.

  3. 03

    Roll pastry to 3 mm thick, cut 10 squares, add a spoonful of filling, fold diagonally to triangles and crimp edges well.

  4. 04

    Brush with egg, scatter flaked almonds and cut a tiny steam slit. Bake 18–23 minutes until deeply golden and pastry cooked through; cool briefly.
