Final Procedure: Sheet each dough piece to a final thickness of 1-1/2 mm. and about 29 ins. in length. Apply 5-1/2 ozs. of kringle filling down the center third of the dough pieces. Add 5-1/2 ozs. of fruit filling over the top of the kringle filling. These fillings should equal the weight of the dough. Then, fold one side of the dough piece over the top of the filling. Fold the remaining side over the top of the other side of dough. Place two pastries on each baking pan with the seam of the dough facing the outside. Form an oval about 10 ins. by 14 ins. by inserting one end of the dough piece about 1/4 in. to 1/2 in. into the other end. Press the entire oval firmly to ensure that all seams are sealed. Dock the pastries four or five times to allow for the release of steam as the kringle bakes. Let the pastries rest at room temperature for 20 minutes. Bake at 400° F for 19 to 20 minutes.
Yields: 300 22-oz. kringles
