- Arrange apple slices on top of the pastry squares, leaving a 1cm border.
- Brush the remaining butter mixture over the apples.

- Serve warm with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or custard.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
