Cinnamon apples on an almond base with plum sauce
Ingredients
Base
100 g almond paste
75 g butter or margarine
1 tbsp plain flour
1 egg
Sauce
200 g plums
1 dl Dansukker Glucose Syrup
1/2 dl Dansukker Icing Sugar
1 tbsp butter or margarine
1 1/2 dl apple juice
3 apples
1/2 dl Dansukker Brown Sugar Dry
1 tsp ground cinnamon
Butter or margarine
Decoration
Blackberries
Instructions
Beat together the almond paste and fat using an electric whisk. Add the flour and egg and mix well. Spread the paste into a 1 cm thick rectangle on a sheet of greased baking parchment. Bake at the centre of the oven at 175 °C for approx. 12 minutes.
Combine all the ingredients for the sauce in a pan, cover and simmer for 5 minutes. Liquidise and strain through a sieve.
Peel, halve and core the apples and cut them into wedges. Mix together the brown sugar and cinnamon and dip the apple wedges in the mixture. Fry the apple wedges in butter or margarine in a frying pan until just tender.
Cut the base into triangles and put them on small plates. Arrange the apple wedges on the triangles. Decorate each triangle with a blackberry if desired. Serve the sauce on the side. If you have no plums, you can use 100 g prunes instead.
