Apple and Cheese Danish

I’m excited to share a recipe that brings both the apples and the cheese together.  How does a delectable Apple and Cheese Danish sound?  Danishes and pastry are a favorite of mine and this really makes me channel my inner love for all things fall.

Apple and Cheese DanishWho loves fall baking?  I do.  I must gain weight every single fall.  And when I think of the season, one of the first things that come to mind is apples! Apple picking, Apple Crisp, and what about cheese?  Oh cheese, how I love you!!

I can’t think of anything better than pairing cheese and crackers with a glass of wine.  There’s a local winery here (in St. Louis) where you can take your own food and simply buy a bottle of wine to enjoy.  On a cool crisp day, I could sit outdoors for hours, soaking up the season.  

Apple Dessert RecipeOther delicious apple flavored recipes to try:
Crockpot Apple Butter
Hot Caramel Apple Cider
Apple Flavored Cinnamon Roll Cake
Easy Apple Crisp

So, I tried this both warm and cold.  Honestly, I preferred it cold.  It is as good as any pastry you’d buy in a pastry or coffee house and it’s perfectly suited for fall.  Yum.

Of course, it would be a fabulous sweet treat to serve throughout the year; however, I just feel all warm and cozy when I think of enjoying a piece with a hot cup of coffee on a cool autumn morning.  Doesn’t that sound perfect?  Be sure to print yourself a copy.  Enjoy.

Apple and Cheese Danish

Delicious pastry for breakfast or dessert. This Apple and Cheese Danish can be eaten both warm or cold. It’s as good as any pastry you’d buy in a coffee shop or bakery.
Prevent your screen from going to sleep

Ingredients

  • 2 sheets of frozen puff pastry sheets thawed
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 6 cups of apples peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 tablespoon caramel sauce
  • 8 oz. package cream cheese softened
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • Milk

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375
  • Lightly grease a baking pan; set aside. On a lightly floured surface, unfold one pastry sheet and roll into a 15x10-inch rectangle. Transfer to the prepared baking pan, pressing pastry to edges of the pan. Bake about 12 minutes or until golden (pastry will puff and shrink from sides of the pan). Cool pan on a wire rack.
  • While the pan is cooling, in a large skillet heat butter over medium heat until melted. Add apples; cook about 8 minutes or until apples are crisp-tender, stirring occasionally. In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup of the granulated sugar, the flour, 1/2 teaspoon of the cinnamon, and the nutmeg. Sprinkle over apples. Add caramel sauce. Cook and stir over medium-low heat for 2 minutes more. Set aside.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, beat cream cheese and the remaining 1/2 cup granulated sugar with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth. Beat in egg and vanilla just until combined. Carefully spread cream cheese mixture over baked pastry within 1 inch of the edges. Spoon apple mixture over cream cheese mixture.
  • On a lightly floured surface, unfold the remaining pastry sheet and roll into a 13x10-inch rectangle (make sure pastry is large enough to completely cover apple mixture). Place on top of the apple mixture. Lightly press edges of the top pastry to edges of the bottom pastry. Lightly top pastry with milk. Using a sharp knife, cut a few slits in pastry to allow steam to escape. Sprinkle sugar and remaining 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon over pastry.
  • Bake 35 to 40 minutes or until pastry is slightly puffed and golden. Cool completely on wire rack. Serve warm.

Notes

To Store:  Place any leftovers in an airtight container and cover.  Store in the refrigerator for a few days.
