  • 12 to 15 Almonds
  • Salt a pinch
  • 1 large Apple , thinly sliced lengthwise
  • 3 teaspoon Sugar optional

Other Ingredients

  • 1 large Egg for egg wash or use heavy cream (optional)

Instructions

  • Coarsely powder almonds and pistachios in a food processor. 
    12 to 15 Pistachios, 12 to 15 Almonds
  • In a bowl, mix cream cheese, sugar, vanilla extract, coarsely powdered nuts, pinch of salt, and mix well. 
    8 oz Cream Cheese, ¼ cup Sugar, 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract, Salt a pinch
  • In another bowl, beat egg with pinch of salt and keep it aside.  (optional step)
    1 large Egg
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.  
  • Evenly spread about ¾ to 1 tablespoon of cream cheese at the center of the wonton wrapper
    18 to 20 Twin Dragon Wonton Wrappers
  • Now place 2 to 3 apple slices on top of the cream cheese and sprinkle some sugar.
    1 large Apple, 3 teaspoon Sugar
  • Fold 2 opposite corners to meet at the middle of the wrapper and seal them together.
  • Brush with egg wash or heavy cream if desired and sprinkle some more sugar. (optional step)
    2 tablespoon Sugar
  • Transfer to baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for about 12 to 15 minutes or until it is light golden brown in color.
  • Apple Cream Cheese Danish with wonton wrappers is ready. Serve and enjoy.

Notes

  • Instead of thinly sliced apples, you can use berries, seasonal fruit, or even apple pie filling. If you are not a fruit lover, make the classic cream cheese Danish.
  • The only thing that you will have to take care of is the baking time, as every oven is different. Start with 10 minutes at 400F and keep an eye on it as it can easily burn.
  • I have applied egg wash for a nice golden color. If you do not want to use it, you can simply ignore it or brush it with some cream or milk.
