Apple Pecan Triangles




Source of Recipe


Toki Noguchi


List of Ingredients




4 Granny Smith apples (or Pippin)
1/2 Cup soy margarine (I use unsalted buter)
2 T lemon juice
1/2 Cup currants
1/4 Cup pecans, chopped
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1 C sugar (amount depends upon personal taste and apple sweetness)
1 pkg filo pastry dough
1/4 Cup cinnamon-sugar mixture



Recipe



Peel and core the apples and cut into small dice.

Melt 3 Tbsp of margarine in a heavy saucepan, add the apples and saute 5 minutes, stirring frequently.

Add the lemon juice, currants, pecans, and spices and saute for another 3-4 minutes.

Taste mixture and add sugar. Set aside to cool.

Melt the remaining margarine.

Cut a 2" strip off the rolled filo dough.

Cover the remainder with a towel and roll out the cut strip.

Remove 2 pieces of the cut dough at a time and place on the cutting
board.

Brush the top piece with margarine and place about a teaspoon of the apple mixture in the lower right hand corner of the filo.

Fold the filo into a small triangle, much like a flag is folded, from corner to corner, or roll like a burrito.

Place the triangles on a baking sheet, brush the top with a little margarine, and sprinkle with a small amount of cinnamon sugar.

Repeat the process until all the filo has been used.

Bake in a 375 F oven until the triangles are just golden, about 25 minutes.
