Description

Recommended Equipment

  • sharp knife
  • cutting board
  • two small pots
  • two small bowls
  • oven

Ingredients

Units Scale

APPLE PIE ROLLS

  • 8 filo pastry sheets
  • 1 apple
  • 150 milliliter apple juice
  • 2 tsp cornstarch
  • 15 grams white sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/8 tsp nutmeg
  • pinch of salt

CARAMEL CINNAMON SAUCE

  • 75g white sugar
  • 2 tbsp water
  • 20 grams butter
  • 75 grams heavy cream
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
  • pinch of salt

VANILLA SAUCE

  • 150 grams heavy cream
  • 150 milliliter full-fat milk
  • 3 egg yolks
  • 1 vanilla bean
  • 50 grams brown sugar
  • pinch of salt

MILK CRUMBLE

  • 30 grams full-fat milk powder
  • 50 grams all-purpose flour
  • 30 grams powdered sugar
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • 25 grams butter
  • 45 grams white chocolate

Instructions

  1. For the apple filling, dice the apples and add them to a pot with apple juice, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, vanilla extract, and lemon juice. Simmer over medium heat for about 10 minutes until the apples are soft. Mix cornstarch with 2 tbsp of cold water, then stir it into the apple mixture. Bring to a quick boil until it thickens, then remove from heat and let cool.
  2. For the caramel-cinnamon sauce, heat sugar and water in a pot until it reaches 170°C (340°F) and turns a light golden caramel (about 10–15 minutes). Remove from heat and carefully stir in butter and cream – it may clump, but just keep stirring. Add a pinch of salt, vanilla extract, and cinnamon, mix well, and let it cool.
  3. For the milk crumble, combine milk powder, flour, powdered sugar, and salt in a bowl. Add melted butter and mix with your hands until crumbly. Spread the mixture onto a baking sheet and bake at 140°C (285°F) for about 10 minutes. While it bakes, melt the white chocolate. Once the crumble is baked, transfer it to a bowl, drizzle the melted chocolate over it, and stir until it forms larger clusters. Set aside.
  4. Next, prepare the vanilla sauce. You can find the recipe here.
  5. For the filo rolls, place a heaping tablespoon of the apple filling on each sheet of filo dough. Fold in the sides, roll them up, and seal the ends with a bit of water. Arrange the rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, brush them with melted butter, and bake at 180°C (355°F) for about 15 minutes until golden brown.
  6. To serve, pour the vanilla sauce onto plates or bowls, cut the filo rolls into three pieces each, and arrange them on top of the sauce. Drizzle with the caramel-cinnamon sauce and finish with milk crumbles. Enjoy!

ABOUT THE RECIPE

You know that moment when a creative food idea feels like pure genius? That was me, infusing oil with red apples and butter toffee candies. The result? Let’s just say it didn’t taste as magical as I imagined. But hey, not every experiment is a win, and this one definitely brought some laughs. Whether you’re here for the curiosity or to avoid making the same mistake, welcome to the quirky world of kitchen experiments!

How to serve
If this oil had worked, I’d have drizzled it over ice cream, pancakes, or even a bowl of vanilla yogurt for a caramel apple vibe. Instead, consider using plain oil as a reminder that simplicity sometimes wins! Pair it with recipes where the natural oil flavor can shine, like salads or marinades – without the apple-toffee detour. But if you’re still craving apples and caramel, you’ve got to try one of my favorite desserts: my Apple Pie Rolls with Vanilla & Caramel Sauce & Milk Crumble!

How to store
Keep infused oils (successful or not) in a clean, airtight container in a cool, dark place for up to a week. Label it clearly to avoid any surprises in the kitchen!

  • Author: Kimberly
  • Total Time: 45 min
  • Yield: 1 cup / 250 ml 1x

Description

RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT

  • blender
  • medium-sized saucepan
  • whisk
  • a bowl which the medium saucepan fits into
  • 2 medium-sized bowls
  • 2 fine mesh strainers
  • oil bottle
  • ice cubes
  • coffee filter

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1/2 red apple
  • 100 grams butter toffee
  • 250 milliliter oil

Instructions

  1. Cut the apple into large chunks, remove the core and put it into the blender along with the butter toffee. Pour in the oil. Blend on the highest setting until no coarse pieces are longer visible.
  2. Pour the mixture from the blender into a medium-sized pot and heat it over medium heat, constantly stirring, to a temperature of about 102°-103°C (215°-217°F). Then, let the oil simmer with the lid partially on for the next 20 minutes. Stir only occasionally, making sure the temperature remains steady and nothing gets burned. The cooking time is essential for all the water to evaporate. You’ll know all the water has evaporated when the oil in the pot barely bubbles anymore – so if it’s still bubbling vigorously, keep it simmering.
  3. At the end of the cooking process, prepare a bowl large enough to fit the medium-sized pot, filled with cold water and a handful of ice cubes. Also, hang a fine mesh sieve strainer over a medium-sized bowl. Now, place the pot in the ice water and stir to stop the cooking process. Once the oil is almost cold, remove the pot from the water and pour the oil into the first fine mesh sieve to catch the coarse particle.
  4. Then, pour the oil into the second fine mesh sieve, which you before equipped with a coffee filter, to catch the remaining finer particles. Allow the oil to drip through for about 20 minutes or maybe less depending on how many remaining particles are in the coffee filter. Once all the oil has passed through the coffee filter, transfer the collected amount of oil into an oil bottle. Store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

Let’s dive into something quite unique: green apple-infused oil. Although I anticipated a burst of tangy, fruity goodness, this oil turned out to be rather insipid. It barely imparts any green apple flavor, so if you’re aiming to elevate your dishes significantly, this may not be the ideal choice.

ABOUT THE RECIPE

Let’s dive into something quite unique: green apple-infused oil. Although I anticipated a burst of tangy, fruity goodness, this oil turned out to be rather insipid. It barely imparts any green apple flavor, so if you’re aiming to elevate your dishes significantly, this may not be the ideal choice. But if you nevertheless want to try it out, here’s the recipe. 

How to serve
Given its mild taste, it’s challenging to recommend it. You might drizzle it on various dishes for a hint of novelty, but don’t expect it to make a big difference. For the adventurous, it could be interesting to try it with my Pork Tenderloin with Parmesan Herb Crust Potato Puree & Gremolata, though it won’t offer a strong flavor enhancement. 

How to store
If you still wish to experiment with it, store the oil in a clean, airtight bottle in a cool, dark place to maintain its faint flavor. It’s best used within 1-2 weeks for optimal freshness.

RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT

  • blender

  • a bowl which the medium saucepan fits into
  • 2 medium-sized bowls
  • 2 fine sieves
  • oil bottle
  • ice cubes
  • coffee filter

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 green apple
  • 250 milliliters cold-pressed rapeseed oil

Instructions

 

  1. Chop the apple in quarters and remove the stem and seeds. Put the apple pieces into the blender. Pour in the oil. Blend on the highest setting until only tiny pieces of the apple are visible.

  3. Prepare a bowl large enough to fit a medium-sized pot, and fill it with cold water and a handful of ice cubes. Also, hang a fine sieve strainer over one medium-sized bowl and another fine sieve strainer, with a coffee filter inside it, over another medium-sized bowl.
  4. Now, place the pot in the ice water and stir to cool the oil quickly. Once the oil is almost cold, remove the pot from the water and let it sit for about 20 minutes so that the oil gets more infused.
  5. After the 20 minutes, pour the oil into the prepared fine sieve to catch the coarse particles.
  6. Then, pour the oil into the second sieve, which is equipped with a coffee filter, to catch the remaining finer particles.
  7. Allow the oil to drip through for about 1 hour or maybe less depending on how many remaining particles are in the coffee filter. Once all the oil has passed through the coffee filter, transfer the collected amount of oil into an oil bottle. Store in the refrigerator for up to 1-2 weeks.

How to store:
Store this sandwich in an airtight container to keep it fresh.
