I have created an apple pie napoleon from frozen pie crust and canned apple pie filling, and it is SCRUMPTIOUS!
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and flour a cutting board.
Defrost the pie crust per the instructions on the box/bag and unroll it onto the cutting board. [If it cracks or breaks, just smoosh it back together.]
Cut out circles - I used a three inch biscuit cutter, but you can use whatever you want to cut your circles...even drinking glasses!
Place the circles on a cookie sheet and sprinkle them with cinnamon sugar.
Bake for 8 - 10 minutes until crispy.
Microwave your pie filling until it's nice and warm...mmm.
Plating:
Place one of the dough circles on a plate, and cover it with the warmed filling.
Do two more layers in this manner.
Garnish with whipped cream on top, and serve!
******************
Oh, goodness...how to describe the flavors and textures of this delicious dessert? Crispy, sweet dough contrasting with the oozy warm pie filling.
I cut it down the middle with my fork, and broke everything into bite size pieces. I'm embarrassed to say that when I finished eating, I kept scraping my fork across the plate to try to get every last crumb and drop of filling. I may have even licked the plate. (Who, me?)
This napoleon is a really beautiful and unique presentation, and is a lot easier than making an apple pie from scratch. These would be great for a dinner party dessert, and are a cinch to put together after the meal.
Hope you enjoy this!
