Time 2h11m

Yield 9

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon white sugar
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup very cold butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
3 tablespoons ice-cold water
2 Pink Lady apples
3 tablespoons lemon juice
½ cup brown sugar, divided
¼ cup unsalted butter, melted, divided
¼ cup strawberry preserves

Steps:

  • Combine flour, white sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Cut in cubed butter using a pastry blender, 2 knives, or your fingertips until mixture resembles coarse meal. Stir in water until dough just comes together into a ball.
  • Form the dough into a disc. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and chill for at least 1 hour.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a muffin tin with butter.
  • Roll out dough to 1/4-inch thickness on a well floured surface. Cut out nine 3 1/2-inch rounds using a biscuit cutter or floured glass. Press rounds into the muffin tin, pushing dough up the sides in the shape of a cup. Transfer to the refrigerator.
  • Core apples by slicing around the core on 4 sides. Cut apples into very thin half moons using a mandolin or a very sharp knife. Toss apple slices with lemon juice in a microwave-safe bowl.
  • Combine 1/4 cup brown sugar and 2 tablespoons melted butter in a small bowl; pour over apples and toss to combine. Microwave apples until pliable enough to roll, about 1 minute.
  • Lay 10 apple slices in a horizontal line on a flat work surface with the skin side facing you; arrange slices so that each slice overlaps the previous slice by half. Roll up the slices tightly from one end to the other. Arrange 2 to 8 additional slices around the outside of each apple rose to reach desired size. Repeat with remaining slices to form 8 more apple roses.
  • Combine remaining 1/4 cup brown sugar and 2 tablespoons melted butter in a small bowl; brush over the bottom of each dough cup. Place an apple rose in each cup.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until dough turns golden and apples are cooked through, 25 to 30 minutes.
  • Pour strawberry preserves into a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in the microwave until liquid, about 30 seconds. Brush preserves over each apple rose.

I think these pies would be even better with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top.

I'm not a big fan of apple pies, but these were surprisingly good. The crust was flaky and the filling was sweet and tart.

The only thing I would change about this recipe is to add a little bit more sugar to the filling. I found it to be a bit too tart for my taste.
