Maple Pecan Plaits

These wee yokes have always been a favourite from the bakery section in the shop. Sweet and nutty with a slight chew from the danish pastry. I'll apologies to start because you'll see in the video I made danish pastry, I thought I was making puff pastry that day. We all make mistakes but it's how we reach and what we do after that counts. In this case I made a different recipe that was loved. Never be disheartened when life throws a spanner in the works. We can all overcome them and follow that new path which is always the right one for us!

Notes

Use 1/2 a tsp of the filling as you'll see 1 tsp is too much and I encountered another mishap. But like I've said time and time again it's how we view and approach a problem. They're all fixable and as you'll see this one was an easy fix even when my Nanny started to worry about it.
