Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
Peel, core, and thinly slice the apples. Place the slices in a mixing bowl.
Add the granulated sugar, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, flour, and lemon juice to the apples. Toss everything together until the apples are evenly coated.
Roll out the puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface to eliminate folds. Cut each sheet into four equal squares.
Divide the apple mixture among the squares, placing it in the center of each square. Dot the top of the apples in each square with small pieces of unsalted butter.
Fold each square over to form a triangle, pressing the edges together to seal. Use a fork to crimp the edges.
In a small bowl, beat the egg with the tablespoon of water to create an egg wash.
Brush the egg wash over the tops of the triangles to ensure a golden crust.
Place the pastries on the prepared baking sheet and make a small slit on top of each pastry to allow steam to escape.
Bake the pastries in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, or until the pastries are puffed and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let the pastries cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your delicious homemade apple puff pastries!
