Directions

1

Mix together the ingredients for the dough. Divide the dough in half. Roll out the first half to line a jelly roll pan. Reserve the other half for the top of the apple danish.
2

Mix together the apples, sugar, flour and cinnamon. Lay across the bottom of the dough in the pan. Dot the butter across the top of the apple mixture.
3

Roll out the remaining dough to the size of the pan. Lay across the apple mixture. (This may be tricky, but it does not have to be perfect. I usually have to piece/pinch mine together.) Beat egg white and brush on top of dough.
4

Bake at 375 degrees (F) for 45 minutes. Remove from oven.
5

Mix together the powdered sugar, milk and vanilla for the icing. Pour on top of the baked apple danish while still warm. Cut into squares.
