3 McIntosh apples
60 mL (¼ cup) cup cider
200 g oz store-bought puff pastry dough
1 egg yolk
160 mL (⅔ cup) cup brown sugar
60 mL (¼ cup) cup evaporated milk
15 mL (1 tbsp.) tbsp corn syrup
15 mL (1 tbsp.) tbsp butter
1 mL (¼ tsp.) tsp ground ginger
1 mL (¼ tsp.) tsp ground cinnamon
1 mL (¼ tsp.) tsp ground cardamom
Directions
1Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F). Place apples and cider in a large bowl and stir well. Cover with plastic wrap and allow to macerate for 1 hour. Drain. On a flat, lightly floured work surface, roll out puff pastry dough to form a 30 cm (12-inch) long by 23 cm (9-inch) wide rectangle measuring 3 mm (1/8 inch) thick.
2Cut pastry into thirds lengthwise and into quarters across the width. You should have twelve 7.5 cm (3 inch) x 7.5 cm (3 inch) squares. Prick dough with a fork and brush with the diluted egg yolk. Transfer pastry squares to a baking sheet and bake for about 8 to 10 minutes, or until golden. Reserve.
3In a small saucepan, stir together 125 mL (1/2 cup) brown sugar, evaporated milk and corn syrup. Cook over medium heat, stirring often, until syrup is hot.
4Cover and reserve. Melt butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add apples, remaining brown sugar, ginger, cinnamon and cardamom.
5Cook for about 10 minutes, or until apples are golden and caramelized. Spoon 5 mL (1 tsp.) caramel sauce into the centre of each of four dessert plates. On each plate, place one puff pastry square on the caramel and top with apple mixture. Cover with a second pastry square and more apples; top with the third and fi nal pastry square. Drizzle caramel sauce over each mille-feuille and serve with vanilla frozen yogurt.
