In a saucepan, combine 1 cup sugar, water, 3 tablespoons butter and 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon. Bring to a boil; boil for 3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside. Roll pastry into a 21-in. x 14-in. rectangle; cut into six 7-in. squares. Place one apple in the center of each square. Combine the remaining sugar and cinnamon; spoon into the center of apples. Dot with remaining butter. Moisten edges of pastry; fold corners to the center atop apple. Pinch to seal. Place in an ungreased 12-in. x 8-in. x 2-in. baking dish. Pour syrup mixture around apples. Bake at 375 degrees for 45 minutes or until pastry is golden brown and apples are tender. Serve warm. |
