    Oh wow, this recipe is fantastic! It is a true dream dessert! So easy to make and super yummy! I loved the melted apple filling with the dried fruit bits and the flakey crust on the outside! YUM! I made half the recipe using whole spelt flour and only 1/4 cup margarine in the dough. As I was out of apricots, I just added some almonds to the filling, which I normally put into my baked apples. It turned out really, really yummy and I felt so special eating this. :) THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing such a keeper with us, Pat. This is now on my holiday company is coming food list.Made and reviewed for WTTM November 2011.

    Baked Apples in Pastry,I would like to thank BusyMomof3 for this little treasure in Sugar Free Cooking cookbook that she sent me in the recent cookbook swap. TIP – for an extra rich pastry, use 1 egg yolk and half the amount of water in this recipe. VARIATION – Use pears instead of apples in the recipe. FREEZING – These apples freeze well after baking and should be thawed and then re-heated before eating.,Oh wow, this recipe is fantastic! It is a true dream dessert! So easy to make and super yummy!
