Remove from the heat. Stir in the vanilla and a pinch of salt. 3. On a lightly floured surface, roll the puff pastry out into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick. Place the pastry on a parchment lined baking sheet and spread the ricotta in an even layer over the pastry, leaving a 1 inch border. Drizzle the ricotta with 2 tablespoons or so of the spiced maple. Arrange the apples, skin side facing up over the ricotta. Drizzle or brush the apples with 2-3 tablespoons of the spiced maple. Fold the edges of the pastry up and over the apples. Now brush the edges of the pastry with a little of the spiced maple and sprinkle with sugar (reserve any remaining spiced maple for serving). 4. Transfer to the oven and bake for 25-35 minutes or until golden brown. It's OK if the edges get dark, and they will get dark.5. Let cool slightly and serve with additional chai spiced maple and ice cream. Enjoy!
