Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside: These mini-bags always steal the show on the Rosh Hashanah table. Instead of sweetening the apples with sugar, I used strawberry preserves, a secret I got from a Parisian pastry chef.

Prepare the Apple Filling
-
Peel the apples and dice into half-inch (one-centimeter) cubes.
-
Melt margarine in a wide pot. Add apples and cook over medium–high heat, stirring, until apples are slightly golden, about 10 minutes.
-
Add strawberry preserves and stir. Cook an additional three minutes.
-
Remove from heat and chill.
Assemble
-
Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit (160 degrees Celsius).
-
Place one phyllo sheet on your work surface. Brush (or spray) with a little oil. Lay another phyllo sheet on top and brush with oil. Repeat for third sheet.
-
Using a sharp knife or a pizza cutter, cut into 30 two-inch (five-centimeter) squares. Place one level teaspoon of apple filling in the center of each square and pull the edges together to form a mini-bag. Lift bag gently and place in a muffin pan. Repeat with remaining dough squares.
-
Brush or spray all bags with a little oil and sprinkle with confectioners’ sugar. Bake for approximately 12 minutes, or until golden.
-
Serve hot, room temperature, or cold. Can be frozen.
