Spiralized apple filo pastry is the perfect easy budget dessert. Taking less than 30 minutes to make and suitable hot or cold this is a fantastic tasty treat!
This spiralized apple filo pastry was conjured up by thinking how I could make a really simple, cheap festive dessert.
I mean I know you folks love my Sugar Free Cinnamon Apple Crumble. But sometimes when you've only got 30 minutes to spare you need something super quick to make.
So here's what I came up with.
An apple filo pastry that's a dessert, and is suitable for all year round too. Not just Christmas.
Plus, it's delicious cold too. Kind of like a Danish pastry, you know?
Who would have thought you could make such a wonderful apple dessert by using a spiralizer?
Why I Recommend Getting A Spiralizer
If you need a little more persuasion as to the reasons for getting a spiralizer, here's just some of the many benefits :-
- Check out the Equipment List in the recipe card for the Spiralizer that I have and use in all my Spiralizer recipes.
- Use a spiralizer to make veggie noddles which means you're consuming fewer calories and carbs.
- Veggie noddles help to get more vegetables into your diet (more towards your 5 a-day and into kids diets too!)
- You'll save money because veggies and fruits are often cheaper than meat.
- Spiralizing suits ALL kinds of lifestyles (80/20, vegetarian, vegan, paleo, low-carb, and gluten-free).
- It's quick and easy - spiralized foods cook quickly and don't require the chopping / prep other foods do!

How To Make Spiralized Apple Filo Pastry
There's no need to spend ages in the kitchen laboriously making puff pastry here either (unless you want to!).
Just buy the lowest fat version of puff pastry you can get.
Then, use spiralized granny smith apples as their sweetness means only having to add the smallest amount of sugar to the recipe to have the right balance of sweet and savory.
The combination of the drizzled sugar syrup with the cinnamon adds the perfect seasonal touch, not to mention those delicious festive aromas in your kitchen whilst it's baking!
Serve with some vanilla ice cream or creme fraiche if served hot or eat as it is if served cold.

It's amazing what happens when you're under pressure to put together a quick dessert!
And, it had to be one where I used my spiralizer. The poor spiralizer was beginning to think it wasn't good enough for anything else but veggies. Ah, but now it's shown us!
Life is so busy Suz. Busy but good! Still spiralizing and cooking away. When I'm not working 10 hour days..........
