London Jazz & Pastry Hearts

The cold season seems particularly well suited to jazz nights & baked apples!

Caught the Gretchen Parlato concert last night which was fantastic, touring from California, & recorded for BBC Radio 3.

& in the afternoon I made a warming treat, inspired by Elsie's fab recipe idea:

~ peel & core a cooking apple, stuff with mincemeat, & then wrap in some puff pastry cut-outs. Bake for 20 mins, drizzle with honey & nuts, & serve - preferably cosied up on the sofa, under a duvet, watching old films ;) ~

Let me know if you have a go at these, it would be great to see your pictures & pastry decorations!
