Looking to express eternal love or just after a fancy dessert? Check out this pretty Apple roses recipe that’s the least a girl deserves!
Ingredients
(makes 15)
- 2 sheets / 500g Puff pastry
- 5 medium / 750g Apples
- ½ piece / 50ml Lemon’s juice
- 2 teaspoons / 5g Cinnamon
- 6 tablespoon / 60g Jam
How to make Apple roses
- Wash, core, halve along the core, then slice the apples to thin ( 1/32″ / 1mm) slices.
- Carefully fold them over in the lemon’s juice that will prevent the apple getting into reaction with oxygen, hence browning.
- In a microwave safe bowl, put the apple slices in the microwave oven on the highest setting until it softens and easy to bend, about 2 – 3 minutes. Cooking or steaming also works but it takes a bit longer.
- Let any excess moisture drip off while cooling the softened apple slices to room temperature. If in a hurry, pop them in the fridge or freezer for a short while.
- Mix the cooled off apple slices with cinnamon.
- If the jam seems to be too thick dilute it with 2 – 3 tablespoons of warm water or heat it together in the microwave oven. Let it cool to room temperature. It has to be soft enough in order to be easily spreadable at room temperature, otherwise it will ruin the puff pastry.
- On a floured work surface, roll the puff pastry out into a rectangle if it’s not already made that way.
- Cut rolled out puff pastry into 2″ / 5cm wide stripes.
- Gently spread a thin layer of room temperature jam onto each slice of puff pastry.
- Place the apple slices onto the top half of the dough slice, in the way they overlap each other about halfway. Make sure the skin side, that will be the petals of the rose, sticks out of the strip and the straight side runs on the dough.
- Fold the uncovered half of the dough up, enclosing the apple slices.
- Roll it up.
- Keep the rolled up apple roses in a muffin form so they won’t fall apart.
- Place the apple roses into the middle rack of a 350°F / 180°C preheated oven until the dough is done, about 30 – 40 minutes. Check for the petals in every 10 minutes as some tend to burn quicker than the others and place them onto lower racks if necessary.
Enjoy!
