- 1 large apple
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 cups water
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
- 1
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Thinly slice the apple into half-moons, about 1/8 inch thick. In a bowl, combine 2 cups water and 1 tablespoon lemon juice; soak apple slices for 5 minutes to prevent browning.

Microwave the apple slices in the lemon water for 2 minutes until pliable. Drain and pat dry. Mix 1 teaspoon cinnamon and 2 tablespoons sugar in a small bowl.

Cut the puff pastry sheet into 4 strips, about 2 inches wide. Sprinkle each strip with the cinnamon-sugar mixture.

Arrange apple slices along the top half of each strip, overlapping slightly. Fold the bottom half of pastry over the apples, then roll up each strip to form a rose shape.

Place the roses in a muffin tin or on a baking sheet. Bake for 20-25 minutes until pastry is golden and apples are tender. Let cool slightly before serving.
