Introduction: Apple Pastries
WARNING: Remove seeds to avoid Death!
We are trying to reduce our food waste this year.
This is my idea for what to do with our apple cores and all the half eaten apples my toddler doesn't want anymore.
We turn them into tasty treats that everyone wants.
The filling does not need to be apples, it can be any leftovers from fruits to curries.

Step 3: REMOVE SEEDS!
Remove seeds from apples!
This is an important step because apple seeds contain amygdalin which becomes cyanide in the stomach, which is not much of a problem if you swallow a few seeds whole but it could become deadly (especially to small people) or make you very sick if a bunch of apple seeds are grated and consumed in a short time.
