Ingredients

📜 1 package of phyllo dough
🧈 2 sticks of butter, melted

For the Filling:
🍏 6 apples, shredded
🧈 2 tablespoons of butter
🥄 1/4 cup of granulated sugar
🥄 1/3 cup of brown sugar
🥄 1 tablespoon of cinnamon
🌰 1/2 teaspoon of nutmeg
🌰 1 cup of walnuts, chopped
🥄 1 tablespoon of corn starch
🍋 Juice of half a small lemon

For the Simple Syrup:
🥄 1 cup of sugar
💧 1 cup of water
🍋 1/3 teaspoon lemon juice

Instructions

1- Prepare the Simple Syrup:

• In a saucepan, combine 1 cup of sugar, 1 cup of water, and 1/3 teaspoon lemon juice.
• Bring to a boil and let simmer for 10 to 15 minutes.
• Remove from heat and let it cool completely.

2- Make the Apple Filling:

• In a pot, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat.
• Add shredded apples, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and corn starch. Mix well.
• Cook the mixture for about 3 to 4 minutes until everything is well combined and the flavors are integrated.
• Remove from heat and mix in the chopped walnuts. Let the mixture cool completely.

3- Assemble the Warbats:

• Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
• Keep phyllo dough covered with a damp towel to prevent it from drying out.
• On a flat surface, lay out one sheet of phyllo dough. Fold it into thirds lengthwise.
• Place a small amount of apple filling at one end of the strip and start folding into a triangle, similar to folding a paper football.
• Continue folding the strip in a triangular motion until you reach the end. If necessary, trim excess dough.
• Place each warbat on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

4- Bake the Warbats:

• Pour melted butter over the prepared warbats.
• Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 30 minutes or until they are golden brown.

5- Finishing Touches:

• Once baked, let the warbats cool for about 5 minutes.
• Drizzle them with simple syrup using only about 1/2 cup to avoid excessive sweetness.
• For an additional layer of flavor, melt 1 cup of caramel bites with 1 tablespoon of water in the microwave for 1 to 1.5 minutes. Stir and drizzle over the warbats.
