Ingredients

• 1 package Dairy-free puff pastry
• 6 units Apricots
• 3 tablespoons Maple syrup
• 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons Almond milk
• 0.5 cup Powdered sugar
• 0.25 cup Slivered almonds

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Halve the apricots, remove pits, and slice them into thin wedges.

Step 3

In a small saucepan, combine apricots, maple syrup, cornstarch, lemon juice, and vanilla extract.

Step 4

Cook the apricot mixture over medium heat, stirring frequently, until it thickens slightly, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Step 5

Roll out the dairy-free puff pastry on a lightly floured surface to about a 10x12-inch rectangle.

Step 6

Cut the pastry into 8 equal squares and transfer them to the prepared baking sheet.

Step 7

Spoon a generous amount of the apricot filling onto the center of each pastry square.

Step 8

Fold the corners of each square towards the center over the filling, pressing gently to secure the edges.

Step 9

Brush the edges of the pastry with almond milk to help with browning.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the pastries are golden brown and puffed.

Step 11

Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly on a wire rack.

Step 12

Mix the powdered sugar with 1 tablespoon of almond milk to create a smooth glaze. Drizzle over the warm pastries.

Step 13

Sprinkle with slivered almonds as a finishing touch.

Step 14

Serve warm or at room temperature and enjoy your dairy-free apricot Danish!
