How to Make Apple Pie Roses

  • Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Unfold your puff pastry sheets, and lay them out on a clean and dry surface.
  • With a sharp knife, cut each sheet into 6 strips so that you end up with 12 strips total from the 2 sheets.

  • Quarter all 3 apples, and remove the core with a paring knife.
  • Use a mandoline or knife to cut the quarters into extremely thin slices. The thinner, the better so the slices bend instead of break when rolling into the apple pie rosettes.
  • Lay the apples—peel side out—on the top third of the puff pastry slice. Be sure that the top of the apple with the peel hangs over the edge a bit above the pastry.

  • Combine melted butter, brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon in a small bowl. The mixture will be a bit thick.
  • With a pastry brush, brush some of the sugar/flour/butter mixture onto the pastry below the slices.
  • Fold the bottom of the puff pastry so that it covers the bottom of the apple slices. It should also cover the brown sugar mixture.

  • Start at one end, and roll the pastry-wrapped apples into a coil, similar to rolling a cinnamon roll. It is normal for this to be a messy process. Apple slices may move and some of the sugar mixture may leak out. All of that is ok!
  • Immediately after rolling, place your apple pie rose tarts into a muffin pan. This will help hold the shape together. You can rearrange and push into place any apples that have moved.

  • Let cool on a cooling rack out of the pan for 10 minutes.
  • Drizzle each apple rose tart with caramel.
  • Serve and enjoy!
