Try your hand at these Mini Apple Puff Pastry Roses by @therese.spoon. They're impressive yet easy, adorably cute & absolutely YUM.
Print Recipe Pin Recipe
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 40 minutes
Course Dessert
Cuisine Tartlets
Servings 10 tartlets

Ingredients
  

  • 3 apples
  • Juice from 1/2 lemon
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 2 sheets puff pastry dough- defrosted
  • 2 tbsp jam

Instructions
 

  • Cut the apples in half, remove the cores and use a mandolin or knife to slice the apples as thinly as possible. Place the slices in a bowl, cover with water and add juice of 1 lemon. Stir to combine, then microwave covered for 2 minutes on high. Drain and set aside.
  • Combine the sugar & cinnamon and mix well to combine.
  • Cut the softened puff pastry sheets into 3cm wide strips (you should get 5 strips per sheet). Sprinkle over with the cinnamon sugar mixture, then arrange the apple slices over the top half of the pastry strip so that they overlap slightly. Fold the bottom half over. Starting on one end, gently roll the strips to create a rose.
  • Place the apple roses into a well-greased muffin tray, and return to the oven to chill while you pre-heat the oven to 180*C. Once heated, bake for 30 or until lightly brown. You may need to cover the top with foil after 20 minutes of they are getting too brown.
  • In the meantime, whisk the jam with 1 tsp warm water. After 30 minutes of baking, brush the top of the apples with the jam glaze, then return to the oven for another 5-10 minutes.
  • Allow them to cool for 5 minutes before removing the roses from the pan, then place on a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
