Steps:
- We'll start by preparing the apples first. Into a medium bowl, add water and squeeze half of a large lemon. Wash the apples and cut them in half. Remove the core and slice then thinly using a knife or a mandolin.
- Next, place these thin slices of apple in water mixed with lemon juice so that your apples don't brown while preparing them.
- Next, microwave the apples for 5 minutes and set them aside. Alternatively, you can put them in a pot and heat them on low until the water almost boils. Drain the water right before you're ready to use the apples.
- Now dust a large cutting board with flour. Place one puff pastry sheet and coat the entire sheet with flour.
- Using a rolling pin, roll out the sheet to double the size of about 12x18 inches.
- Now cut this sheet into 6 pieces that are 3x12 inches. Next, spread a teaspoon of apricot preserves onto one of the pieces.
- Place drained apple slices on one side of the pastry and fold the pastry in half.
- Now pinch both ends of the pastry and start rolling it into a roll. Pinch the end to the rose to secure it.
- Now place the dessert rose in a greased pan. I prefer using parchment paper to line my sheet using it makes it easier to remove the roses from the pan after they are done baking. This is because after the roses bake, they lead a little and get stuck to the pan.
- Next, repeat the same steps for the second puff pastry sheet.
- Once all puff pastry sheet has been rolled into dessert roses, bake the roses for 45 min at 375F on the lowest oven rack.
- Once done, let them cool for 5 minutes on the pan and then remove them with a spatula. After they cool completely, dust some confections' sugar for decoration. Optionally, you can also sprinkle some cinnamon powder onto it.
- Your beautiful dessert roses are ready to be served! Serve with your favorite desserts and have them with a delicious cup of latte.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Butter 2 small ramekins (6 to 8 ounce) and dust with white sugar.
- Place apple slices on a plate, overlapping slightly if necessary. Microwave on High about 45 seconds just until slices have softened a bit. Cover plate with plastic wrap and a kitchen towel.
- Mix together sugar and cinnamon in a bowl.
- Roll puff pastry sheet to less than 1/8-inch thickness. Using a pizza cutter, cut two 3-inch by 12-inch rectangles. Reserve remaining pieces for another use.
- Spread melted butter over dough; top with a generous amount of cinnamon-sugar. Place apple slices along 1 long edge of dough, about 1/4 inch beyond edge of dough, overlapping slices slightly. Fold bottom half of dough over the apple slices to form a long "folder" of dough with rounded edges of apple slices exposed.
- Beat egg and water together in a bowl. Paint surface of dough with egg wash. Sprinkle with more cinnamon-sugar, to taste.
- Starting from one end, roll dough not too tightly to form a rose-shaped pastry. Seal roll with end of dough strip.
- Transfer roses to prepared ramekins. Sprinkle with a little more cinnamon-sugar. Place ramekins directly on middle rack of preheated oven.
- Bake until well browned, about 45 minutes. Remove ramekins with tongs and place on baking sheet to cool 5 to 10 minutes. Remove apple roses from ramekins and finish cooling on rack. Dust with confectioners' sugar before serving.

Steps:
- Thaw the puff pastry at room temperature if you haven't done so yet. It should take about 20-30 minutes.
- Prepare a bowl half filled with water and the lemon juice. Cut the apples in half, remove the core and cut the apples in paper-thin slices. Leave the peel so it will give the red color to your roses. Right away, place the sliced apples in the bowl so that they won't change color.
- Microwave the apples in the bowl for about 3 minutes, to make them slightly softer and easy to roll. If you prefer, you can also simmer the apple slices with the water in a small pan (on the stove). The apple slices should be cooked just enough to bend without breaking. If they break, you need to cook them a little more.
- Unwrap the puff pastry over a clean and lightly floured counter. Using a rolling pin stretch the dough into a rectangular shape of about 12 x 9 inch (30 x 22 cm). Cut the dough in 6 strips, each about 2 x 9 inch (5 x 22 cm).
- In a bowl, place three tablespoons of apricot preserves with two tablespoons of water. Microwave for about one minute (or warm up on the stove) so that the preserves will be easier to spread. Spread a thin layer of preserves on each strip of dough.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Drain the apples.
- Arrange the apple slices on the dough, overlapping one another. Make sure the top (skin side) of the slices sticks a little out of the strip. Sprinkle with cinnamon.
- Fold up the bottom part of the dough.
- Starting from one end, carefully roll the dough, keeping the apple slices in place. Seal the edge at the end, pressing with your finger, and place in a regular muffin cup. No need to grease the muffin mold if it's silicone. Otherwise, make sure to grease with butter and flour (or spray).
- Do the same for all 6 roses. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for about 40-45 minutes, until fully cooked. NOTES: Make sure the pastry is fully cooked on the inside before removing the roses from the oven! If after the first 30 minutes the apples start to burn on top, move the pan to a lower rack of the oven and finish baking. You can also cover loosely with aluminum foil for these last 10-15 minutes, to avoid burning the top. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and enjoy!
- These are best eaten right after baking, when still warm and crisp. They can be stored in an air-tight container at room temperature for up to two days. Or in the refrigerator for up to three days. You can always warm them up for a few minutes by placing in the oven before serving.
Tips:
- To make the puff pastry easier to work with, chill it for at least 30 minutes before using.
- If you don't have a rolling pin, you can use a wine bottle to roll out the puff pastry.
- When cutting the puff pastry into strips, make sure they are all the same size so that the apple roses are uniform.
- To make the apple filling, use a variety of apples for a more complex flavor.
- Be sure to sprinkle the apples with lemon juice to prevent them from browning.
- When rolling up the apple roses, start from the outside and work your way in.
- Place the apple roses seam side down in the baking dish so that they don't unroll.
- Brush the apple roses with melted butter before baking to give them a golden brown color.
- Serve the apple roses warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
Conclusion:
Apple roses are a beautiful and delicious dessert that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With a little practice, you'll be able to create stunning apple roses that will impress your friends and family.
