Ingredients
- 20 sheets Athens® Phyllo Dough (9” x 14”), thawed
- 1 can (21 ounce) apple pie filling
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 2 1/2 tablespoons crystallized ginger, finely chopped
- 12 gingersnaps, crushed to powder
- 5 tablespoons butter, melted
Directions
Thaw one roll of phyllo, following thawing instructions on package. Preheat oven to 350⁰F.
In a medium bowl, mix together apple pie filling, cinnamon and ginger. Set aside.
Unroll and cover phyllo sheets with plastic wrap, then a slightly damp towel to prevent drying out. Place one sheet of phyllo on work surface, lightly brush with butter, and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon of gingersnap crumbs. Layer and repeat with three more sheets. Do not butter or add crumbs to top layer. With a pizza cutter, cut four 3 1/2” x 9” strips.
About 1” from end of phyllo strip, place 1 tablespoon of filling. Fold one corner of phyllo diagonally across to opposite edge to form a triangle. Continue to fold triangle unto itself to end of strip. Lightly brush outside of triangle with butter. Place triangle seam side down on ungreased cookie sheet or baking pan. Repeat process four more times to make 20 triangles placed at least 1″ apart. Reroll unused phyllo sheets and follow storage instructions on package.
Bake for 15 minutes or until golden brown.
