Ingredients

1 hour
6 servings
  1. apples and pastry
  2. 2Red apples
  3. 1 1/2 tsplemon juice
  4. 1 1/4 cupwater
  5. 1roll / sheet of ready made puff pasty (ensure properly thawed at room temperature)
  6. all-purpose flour
  7. 3-4Tblsp of rasberry / strawberry preserve
  8. ground cinnamon
  9. icing / powdered sugar for dusting

Cooking Instructions

1 hour
  1. 1

    Place water into a bowl with lemon juice.

  2. 2

    Cut apples in half, core and slice thinly across.

  3. 3

    Place sliced apples into bowl of water (water should cover apples) then microwave for about 2 - 3 minutes to soften them slightly.

  4. 4

    Strain apples discarding liquid.

  5. 5

    In the mean time, roll out puff pastry to make thinner. Use flour to prevent from sticking.

  6. 6

    Cut puff pastry into 6 equal sized strips.

  7. 7

    Spread raspberry / strawberry preserve over pastry strips.

  8. 8

    On top half of pastry strip, place row of apples horizontally overlapping slightly with apple skins facing towards the outer (top)side of pastry.

  9. 9

    Dust apples with cinnamon powder.

  10. 10

    Now fold bottom half of pastry over so that it half covers your apples. It should look like a row of apples on top with pastry along the bottom.

  11. 11

    Lift pastry from one end and roll towards other end to form a rose.

  12. 12

    Place rose - pastry side down into a non-stick / muffin tray. This helps keep the shape. Ps. I spray tray with non-stick cook and bake spray.

  13. 13

    Bake in a moderate oven until pastry cooks through - roughly 40 - 45 minutes.

  14. 14

    When done, remove from tray and dust with icing / powdered sugar and serve.

  15. 15

    I served alongside a combination of chocolate mouse and fresh cream with a dusting of chocolate.
