Apple Puff Pastry Roses

Description

Delicate apple roses that taste like warm apple pie wrapped in flaky pastry, making an impressive and charming dessert.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 sheets of puff pastry
  • 2 apples
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • Flour for dusting
  • Powdered sugar for dusting (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly flour your work surface and roll out the puff pastry sheets to smooth any creases. Prepare a muffin tin by greasing or lining with silicone cups. Core the apples and cut them in half. Slice the apples very thinly—about 1/8 inch (3 mm). Toss the slices immediately with the lemon juice to stop browning.
  2. In a bowl, mix the sugar and cinnamon. Toss the lemon-coated apple slices with the cinnamon sugar so they are evenly coated. If apples are thick-skinned or very firm, microwave the slices for 30–40 seconds to soften them slightly.
  3. Cut each puff pastry sheet into thin strips, about 1 to 1.5 inches (2.5–4 cm) wide. Arrange the apple slices along each strip with the rounded edges hanging over the top and slightly overlapping like petals. Fold the bottom of the pastry strip up to secure the apple slices, then roll the strip from one end to the other to form a rose. Place each rolled rose into the muffin tin. Dot the top of each rose with small pieces of the butter. Bake for about 25–30 minutes or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown and the apples are tender.
  4. Allow the roses to cool in the muffin tin for 5–10 minutes. Gently remove them and place on a rack. Dust with powdered sugar if desired. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

Serve warm for the best texture. These roses pair beautifully with ice cream or whipped cream.
