Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Apple Kringle with Vanilla Glaze
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, salt, and granulated sugar. Cut in the chilled butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add cold water, stirring just until the dough forms. Chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  2. Peel and dice the apples. In a separate bowl, mix the diced apples with brown sugar, ground cinnamon, lemon juice, and cornstarch. Let sit for about 10 minutes.
  3. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll out the chilled dough into a large rectangle, about 12x16 inches.
  4. Position the apple filling in a line down the center of the rolled-out dough. Make diagonal cuts on each side about 2 inches apart. Fold the cut flaps over the filling.
  5. Transfer the Apple Kringle onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.
  6. Let cool on the baking sheet for about 10 minutes. Prepare the vanilla glaze and drizzle over the warm Kringle before serving.
