Method

Step 1
Preheat oven to 200°C.

Step 2
Line a large baking tray with non-stick baking paper. Cut the pastry sheets into quarters and place them, spaced apart, on the tray. Brush with the egg yolk and bake for 10-12 minutes until golden. Set aside to cool.

Step 3
Soak the raisins in the brandy for 15 minutes to macerate.

Step 4
Chop the apples into 1 1/2cm dice and toss in the lemon juice.

Step 5
Place the butter in a large frying pan over low heat, add the honey and spices and stir to release the flavours. Add the apples, raisins and liquid and cook over low-medium heat for about 10 minutes, stirring, until golden and caramelised. Set aside at room temperature.

Step 6
Whip together the cream, icing sugar and vanilla extract in a bowl until light and fluffy.

Place a square of pastry on each plate, top with spiced apple and a dollop of vanilla cream. Top with another sheet of pastry and dust with icing sugar.
