Краффин с яблоком и изюмом – это удивительное сочетание французской изысканности и домашнего уюта. Этот десерт напоминает одновременно круассан и маффин, обладая нежной слоистой структурой и богатым вкусом. Его происхождение связано с современными экспериментами в кондитерском искусстве, где классические рецепты переосмысляются и приобретают новые формы. Начинка из яблок и изюма пропитана коньяком, добавляя тонкие фруктовые ноты и легкую карамельную сладость. Хрустящая корочка, воздушное тесто и аромат миндаля делают этот десерт идеальным дополнением к утреннему кофе или вечернему чаепитию. Краффин – это праздник вкуса и текстур, который пленяет с первого укуса и оставляет приятное послевкусие.

Let the dough rise for 1-1.5 hours. Soak the raisins in cognac and let them swell. When the dough is almost ready, that is, risen, grind the almonds into crumbs in a food processor. Peel and finely chop or process the apples in a food processor, adding a little lemon juice to prevent browning.

Punch down the risen dough and divide it into two parts - this will yield two croffins. Dust the work surface and the dough with flour. Roll out the first half of the dough into a thin rectangular sheet. Spread softened butter on the sheet and sprinkle with half of the almonds, evenly distribute half of the apple mixture, and top with half of the raisins. Press down and roll into a tight log.

Cut the roll in half lengthwise with a sharp knife, leaving 2 cm from the start. Twist one half into a spiral towards its beginning. Twist the second half into a spiral, lift it, and place it on top of the first. Do the same with the second half of the dough.

Grease high baking molds with butter, place the carefully rolled dough inside, and let it rise for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 180 degrees.
