Ingredients

  • 1 box (2 sheets) Pepperidge Farms puff pastry sheets thawed according to package instructions
  • 3 red apples* thinly sliced
  • ½ piece Lemon juiced
  • ¼ cup Granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter melted (for brushing)
  • Powdered sugar for dusting (optional)

Instructions

Prepare the Apples:

  • Wash and slice the apples in half lengthwise and remove the cores.
  • Place the flat side down and thinly slice into half-moon shapes.
  • In a large bowl, toss the sliced apples with the lemon juice.
  • Add 1–2 teaspoons of the granulated sugar and a pinch of the cinnamon. Mix until evenly coated. Set aside the remaining sugar and cinnamon.

Prepare the Puff Pastry:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tray with nonstick spray or butter.
  • On a lightly floured surface, unfold the puff pastry sheets.
  • Brush one side of each sheet with the melted butter.
  • Mix the remaining granulated sugar and cinnamon together in a small bowl.
  • Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the buttered puff pastry.
  • Cut each sheet into 6 even strips, making 12 strips total.

Assemble the Apple Roses:

  • Arrange a few apple slices along one puff pastry strip, overlapping slightly, with the rounded side of the apples sticking out from the edge.
  • Fold the bottom half of the strip up over the apples, keeping the curved edges exposed.
  • Starting at one end, gently roll the strip to form a rose shape.
  • Place the rolled apple rose into a muffin cup. Repeat with remaining strips.

Bake and Serve:

  • Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.
  • Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
  • Dust with powdered sugar before serving, if desired.
