Combine the sugar, cinnamon and salt in a bowl. Add the apple and mix to combine.
Lay the pastry on a sheet of parchment paper. Brush with the butter and spread with the apple mixture.
Mark the center of the pastry and ½-inch on either side, then at the quarter points. Using the markings as a guide, fold over one edge of the pastry to the quarter point, then fold again towards the center leaving a ½-inch space from the center mark. Repeat on the other side and fold in half.
Insert the wire rack into position 5. Set the oven to Bake, Convection, 385°F, for 14 minutes, enable Rotate Remind and press Start to preheat. Meanwhile, continue to the next step.
Line a jelly roll pan with parchment paper. Cut the pastry into 16 pieces approximately ¾-inch thick. Place 8 pieces, cut side up, evenly spaced apart in the pan. Place the remaining palmiers in the refrigerator while cooking.
Once preheated, place the pan in the oven and bake for 14 minutes. When the Rotate Remind signals, use a spatula to turn the palmiers over and continue cooking.
The palmiers should be golden and crisp. If not, bake them a little longer.
Cool the palmiers in the pan for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Reline the pan with parchment paper and repeat with the remaining palmiers.
Once cooled, the palmiers are ready to serve. They’re crisp on the edges, tender in the center, and smell like a warm spiced breeze fresh from the oven!
