Apple Pastry Squares

“'WE HAVE four very productive apple trees in our backyard, so I make a lot of recipes that call for apples. Even then, we'll often end up giving bushels of them away. This apple dessert is one of my family's favorites. If you're serving a larger group, I've found that it goes a little further when cut into squares rather than slices like a traditional apple pie.'”

I've recently been really into baking so I'm always looking for things to make for my family and friends. Anyway. The recipe took a WHILE to make and I ended up slicing the apples too thinly and therefore having too many apples. Also the glaze was a little too thick so i ended up adding a few more tbs of milk. The only other problem I had was the instructions. I had a bit of trouble understanding them. Not sure if that makes me sound stupid or not but that's just my opinion. Over all, though, definitely worth the trouble. It tasted AWESOME.

Yummy. These are my nephew's favorite. He request them every time he comes up from Virginia. Very tasty, a bit time consuming but worth it. Very pretty presentation.

Great recipe! I made a few changes that turned out wonderful! 1/2 cup of brown sugar instead of 1/4 in filling. add 3 tbsp of honey to the pastry dough after mixing in egg yolk, lemon juice and water mixture. for the glaze i sprinkled in some cinnamon and granulated sugar. I only needed to bake it for 25 minutes at 400 degrees and it was a light golden brown. SUPER yummy!

This was an alright recipe.The crust was bland and definitely needed sugar. The filling also needed more sugar. Other than that, it wasn't bad!

A great way to make Apple Pie for a lot of people~! I made it service snack and everyone said it was great~! So that is why I gave it 5 stars it got great reviews from over 30 people. The only thing that I changed was that I add more cinnamon to it than was called for, but I always do that for most recipes!
