7.	Spoon the apple mixture on top of the marmalade.
8.	Fold the edges of the puff pastry up and over the apple mixture.

10.	Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.

HEALTH & BENEFITS

Apples are a great source of fiber and vitamin C. They’re also low in calories and can help regulate blood sugar levels. However, the sugar and butter in the puff pastry make it quite high in calories and fat.
