Preparation

Step 1

Wash the apples, cut them in half, and core them. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place the apple halves on it. Bake the apples in a preheated oven at 120 degrees Celsius (250 degrees Fahrenheit) for 2 hours. If your apples start to burn, reduce the temperature.

Step 3

Cover the container with puree with cling film and put it in the refrigerator until it cools completely.

Step 4

Add the cold egg whites to the puree and beat with a mixer. It's important to do this at high speed so the mixture whips well, increases in volume, and becomes lighter in color.

Step 5

Mix water with agar-agar and 270 g of sugar. Place the syrup over the heat and cook until it reaches 110 degrees Celsius. Stir occasionally to prevent burning.

Step 6

Add the hot syrup to the apple mixture in a thin stream, continuing to beat with a mixer.

I used quite a bit of sugar in this recipe, which made the dessert quite cloying. However, not everyone enjoys such sweet dishes. That's why the amount of sugar can be adjusted. You can either decrease or increase it. Granulated sugar can also be easily replaced with honey, maple syrup, and sweeteners such as stevia, fructose, and erythritol.

I recommend coating the apples with walnut oil before baking. This will impart a subtle nutty flavor to the pastila.
