- For 6 servings
- Difficulty medium
- Time 1 hour 30 minutes
Ingredients Dough 300gr flour 200gr butter 1 egg Water and salt
Filling 1 can of sliced pineapples 1 can of plums in syrup of 500gr 1 can of cherries in syrup of 500gr Apple marmalade
Preparation
- Place the flour in a round container.
- Put the softened diced butter in the center; add a whole egg and a dab of salt.
- Add all the flour working with your fingertips to not harden the dough.
- Wet slowly with water and work on it with a wooden spatula.
- Once it has the appropriate consistency (soft but that it stays in the shape you desire) make a roll.
- Squash it twice with your palms pushing forward, make a roll again and repeat the process before forming it once more.
- Let it rest in a fresh area (not the fridge), cover it with a white cloth for an hour at least.
- Lower the dough until it’s 3-5 mm in thickness.
- Cut a convenient sized circle and place it on a buttered tray.
- Join the rest of the dough and make a roll and lower it with a roller until it’s 6-7 mm in thickness.
- Cut five pieces in croissant shapes, they should be big enough to touch their tips in a circular form on a table.
- Stick them to the main dough by dampening it; pinch the bottom with a fork.
- Place a circle shaped buttered paper, cover it with garbanzos for the top to remain flat when cooking.
- Place it in a high heated oven for 10 minutes and at a medium heated oven for 20 minutes.
- Fill it up with the very well sifted fruit in syrup forming quarters.
- Dilute a little apple jelly with one or two tbsps of water to get thick syrup.
- Cover the fruit with the syrup and place into oven for 3-4 minutes before letting it cool off.
Practical advice The dough should not be dense, because it shrinks when put in heat.
