Step-by-step instructions

1. 1

   Line the bottom of the air fryer with aluminum foil. Cut the sheet of puff pastry in half lengthwise, then divide each half into three pieces – you’ll get six rectangles. On each piece make a slit along the edge about 2 cm long without cutting all the way through, and place them in the refrigerator while you prepare the apples.

2. 2

   Remove the cores from the apples and cut them into quarters, then slice each quarter into thin slices. Transfer the apple slices to a bowl, add lemon juice and toss. Add ground cinnamon and granulated sugar, mixing thoroughly so the slices are evenly coated.

3. 3

   Place the apple slices in the center of each pastry piece, avoiding spilling over the slit. Return the tartlets to the refrigerator for another 20 minutes.

4. 4

   Preheat the air fryer to 180 °C. Cook the tartlets for 25–30 minutes until the pastry is browned and the apples acquire a light golden hue. Before serving, brush them with beaten egg or milk and sprinkle with powdered sugar.
