Instructions:

  1. Preparation:

    • Unwrap the phyllo pastry and cover it with clear film and a damp cloth to prevent it from drying out.
    • In a large bowl, mix the chopped apples with cinnamon, brown sugar, pecans, sultanas, currants, caster sugar, and lemon zest to create the filling.
  2. Assembly:

    • Take one sheet of phyllo pastry at a time and cut it into 15×30 cm strips.
    • Brush each strip with melted butter.
    • Place a spoonful of the prepared filling at one end of each strip and fold in the sides, so the pastry measures 13cm across.
    • Brush the edges with melted butter and roll up the pastry.
    • Pinch the ends of each cracker tightly to secure the filling.
  3. Chilling:

    • Place the assembled crackers on a baking tray.
    • Cover and chill them in the refrigerator for 10 minutes.
  4. Baking:

    • Preheat the oven to 190°C (375°F).
    • Brush each cracker with melted butter again.
    • Bake for 30 minutes, or until the crackers are golden brown and crispy.
  5. Cooling and Serving:

    • Allow the crackers to cool slightly on the baking tray.
    • Transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  6. Lemon Sauce:

    • In a small saucepan, combine all the ingredients for the lemon sauce.
    • Heat gently until the sugar is dissolved, stirring occasionally.
    • Pour the warm lemon sauce into a sauce boat for serving.
  7. Final Touches:

    • Dust the cooled crackers with icing sugar for a sweet finish.
    • Optionally, tie foil ribbons around the ends of the crackers for a festive touch.
