Apple Roses

Besides being a very easy recipe to follow, these Apple Roses are absolutely delicious too. This dessert will definitely impress your loved ones when they’re served on any occasion or even presented as a gift (on Valentine’s Day too). I adapted the recipe from Not Quite Nigella and simplified it by omitting the butter and cinnamon powder.

Drain the apple slices and dry them with kitchen towel.

Put All-Purpose Flour (to taste) on a clean surface and roll out the puff pastry to lengthwise, so it becomes longer. Cut into 6 long strips and brush with the Apricot Jam (1 Tbsp) .

Line up the apple slices half up the piece of Puff Pastry (1 slice) so that they slightly overlap each other. Brush with Butter (to taste) and Ground Cinnamon (1/4 tsp) . Roll over the pastry so that the bottom half of the apple slices are covered.

Then start rolling up from one side to form a flower and place it into cupcake tin.
