Gaby's Bakery - Apple Pie Florettes

Here’s a great looking showstopper. Easy to make and even easier to eat 😀. 

Apple Pie Florettes

Ingredients: (6 pies)
For the apple sauce:
1 large bramley apple – peeled, cored & chopped
50g water
20g sugar

For the pies:
1 packet ready rolled puff pastry
3 apples of choice - cored
Sugar to sprinkle
Icing sugar to dust

Method:
For the apple sauce:


Place prepared apples in a saucepan with the sugar & water, bring to the boil and then simmer for appx. 10 mins, until apples are soft. Once ready blitz in a food processor until smooth.

For the pies:
Preheat oven to 190c (fan), grease a 6-hole muffin tray.

Cut the apples in half from top to bottom, then thinly slice each half from top to bottom so you have slices that are about 1mm thick.

Roll out strips of the puff pastry to appx 30 x 6cm. Brush the apple sauce thinly over each strip, then place slices of the apples overlapping each piece from one end to the other from the middle half of the pastry so that the top of the apple overhangs.

Once you get to the end lightly sprinkle sugar over the apples, then fold the plain half of the pastry over the apples and roll the filled pastry from one end to the other.

Place in a cavity of the muffin tray, (please see images attached). Once all 6 pies are ready, bake for 25-30 mins, until apples and pastry have browned and are cooked through. If the tips of the apples start to burn, place a piece of foil over the top.

Once ready, take out oven and leave to cool on a wire rack. Dust with icing sugar before serving.

Enjoy.

For a long time, the ‘Butterfly’ haircut reigned as the most requested style. But in 2025 and the early months of 2026, ‘Bobs’ took over, and we loved seeing Lily Collins, Ji-young Yoo and Kathy Bates embrace different versions of the trend. From French bobs to blunt cuts and box bobs, each of them wore the style beautifully.

Myths & Misunderstandings - Can I over-protein my hair?

Healthy hair is essentially 97% protein and 3% water. The protein provides the structural strength, the water gives flexibility and shine. Hair cannot be overloaded with protein but it can become so dehydrated with heat styling, colouring, and siliconised hair products that you end up losing the 3% water of fresh root hair, and then what is left of the shrunken hair towards the ends is 100% protein and too porous to hold moisture.
