Appelbollen (Apple Balls)

[Guest guest]

Appelbollen (Apple Balls)-German

 

1 cup all-purpose flour

juice of 1/2 lemon, strained

dash of salt

4 or 5 tart apples

3 tablespoons granulated sugar

cinnamon-sugar mixture

1 cup unsalted butter, chilled

1 egg, slightly beaten

confectioners' sugar

 

Heat oven to 375 degrees.

Mix the flour, salt and sugar in a large bowl. Cut the

chilled butter in with a knife until crumbly. Work the

dough with your hands and add the strained lemon

juice. Once the dough is smooth, let it rest in the

refrigerator for one hour.

Peel and core the apples. Sprinkle the insides

liberally with cinnamon and sugar.

Roll the chilled dough on a floured surface. Cut a

circle from the dough so that you can wrap the apple

like a blanket. To seal the edges of the dough, brush

the slightly beaten egg over the edges and pinch shut.

Place the apple balls on a greased cookie sheet and

brush the surface with the beaten egg. Bake at 375

degrees in the middle of a preheated oven (longer for

large apples) until golden brown. Remove and sprinkle

with confectioners' sugar.

Serves 4 or 5.
