Steps

1
Done

Preparations

Preheat your oven to 200°C/390°F.
Add the raisins to a small bowl and cover with rum. Let this sit while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.

Apples

Peel your apples and core them using an apple corer OR cut the apple into quarters and cut the core out that way. You can use any apple you like or have access to, I prefer green apples because they remain slightly sour even after baking and this is a nice touch to the cake.
After cutting the apple into quarters, thinly slice them.

Cooking the apples

Melt a bit of vegan butter in a pan and add in the apples. Sauté the apples for a few minutes until the apples start to soften.
Then add the cinnamon and the sugar. Sauté again until the apples are soft.
Then add the vanilla and the sachet of vanilla sugar. If you don't have vanilla sugar, you can also use a vanilla bean.
Mix together. Check if the apple is soft enough. Then add in the splash of rum and stew for maybe 3 minutes or until the alcohol is evaporated.
If the caramel sauce is still too runny, add in a tablespoon or 2 more of sugar. This will thicken the sauce.

The apples part 2

Turn off the heat and add in the soaked raisins. Then let the apples cool down. It doesn't have to be completely ice cold but if it's too hot the puff pastry will get too soft to handle.

Assembling

Roll out the sheet of the vegan puff pastry and scoop the apples in the middle lenghtwise. Leave a couple of centimeters off the edges and don't worry too much about the caramel sauce that's spilling.
Cut the puff pastry diagonally on the 2 long sides of the puff pastry, and cut off the 4 edges but do not throw them away!
Roll over the 2 short sides and then start overlapping the diagonally sliced sides until you have a rectangular shape.
If you have any big gaps, cover them with the leftover puff pastry you just cut off.
Brush the cake with a little oil, and any of the caramel sauce that has dripped out of the cake. Sprinkle a bit more sugar on top.

Done

Baking

Bake the cake for 20 minutes at 200°C/390°F or until golden brown. Eat with a scoop of vegan ice cream, I like the Alpro Almond and Caramel! Beware though, the inside of the cake is very hot, but the cake is best eaten when warm. Enjoy!
