APPLE NAPOLEONS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a small bowl, combine cinnamon and sugar. Place pastry on a lightly floured work surface. Sprinkle evenly with 2 tablespoons cinnamon mixture. Carefully roll out to 1/8 inch thick. Cut out eight 3 inch squares, and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Cover with more parchment and another baking sheet. Chill in freezer until firm, about 15 minutes.
• Bake pastry in oven until crisp and lightly browned, about 30 minutes. Remove top parchment and baking sheet. Transfer, with bottom parchment, to a wire rack, and let cool.
• Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, melt butter over medium-high heat until foam subsides. Add apples; cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, about 7 minutes. Add remaining cinnamon mixture. Cook until apples are tender but not falling apart. Let cool completely. To assemble, top the pastry with whipped cream then apples; repeat with another layer of each. Serve immediately.

• Thaw puff pastry sheet at room temperature for 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Unfold puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface. Cut into 3 strips along the fold marks. Place strips 2-inches apart on a baking sheet. Bake for 15 minutes, or until golden. Remove from baking sheet and cool on a wire rack.
• In a small bowl combine whipped topping and cinnamon sugar. Set aside.
• In a small mixing bowl, beat on low speed with an electric mixer the cream cheese and powdered sugar until light and fluffy. Add caramel creme liqueur and beat until smooth.
• Place one baked puff pastry sheet on a platter. With the back of a fork, gently push down center of the pastry creating a trough for filling. Spoon in some broken-up apple pie, and then layer with 1 cup of whipped topping mixture. Repeat with next layer. Top with baked pastry sheet. Drizzle with glaze and serve.

GARNET YAM, BACON, AND APPLE HASH

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, add the yams, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt. Toss to coat and arrange them on a baking sheet. Roast the yams until they are soft but not mushy, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and reserve.
• Coat a large saute pan with olive oil. Add the bacon and put the pan over medium heat. When the bacon has started to get crispy and brown, add the onions, season with salt, and saute until the onions are very soft and aromatic. Add the apples and the scallion whites and saute for 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the yams and saute until they are cooked through and starting to become crispy, 7 to 8 minutes.
• Transfer to a serving platter and garnish with the scallion greens and pumpkin seeds.
• Fantastico!

SAUSAGE HASH WITH APPLES & SAGE

Steps:

• Heat 2 Tbs. oil over low heat in a 12-inch non-stick skillet (so potatoes don't stick). While skillet heats, prepare onion and Italian sausage as directed above. A few minutes before cooking, increase heat to medium-high. When oil starts to send up wisps of smoke, add onion and sausage; cook, stirring often, until golden brown. Meanwhile, dice potatoes and apples and toss with remaining oil. Transfer sausage mixture to a bowl and reserve.
• Add potato mixture to empty skillet; cook, stirring only occasionally so they form a golden-brown crust, about 10 minutes. As potatoes cook, mix ketchup, mustard, dried sage and fresh parsley and 2 Tbs. of water. (Recipe can be prepared to this point up to 2 hours ahead. Spread hot potatoes on a large lipped cookie sheet; cover when cool. Return skillet to medium-high; add potatoes and re-crisp.)
• Return reserved sausage mixture to skillet; stir in ketchup mixture, then season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, until hash has nicely browned, about 5 minutes longer.

SAUSAGE, MUSTARD & APPLE HASH

Steps:

• Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil. Add the potatoes and cook for 4 mins. Drain and leave to steam dry in a colander.
• Heat half the butter and 1 tbsp olive oil in a large frying pan or shallow casserole dish over a medium-high heat. Add the apple wedges and fry on each side for 5 mins or until golden brown and starting to caramelise. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside on a plate.
• In the same pan, heat the remaining butter and a little more oil over a medium heat and add the potatoes and sausage chunks. Fry for 10-15 mins, turning every so often until the potatoes and sausage are crisp and golden brown. Season to taste. Stir through the mustard and the apple wedges, then scatter over some thyme leaves, and serve with watercress salad.
