Baked Apple Roses
/Baked Apple Roses
These are so easy to make, they make any occasion special. I am making these to welcome the new year but you can make them any time of the year when you can find good apples.
I have made these with a variety of apples; my current favorites are honey bears, not honey crisps, but pick any apple that’s your favorite. Something “crispier” and tart will hold up better under heat.
Baked Apple Roses Recipe
You Will Need:
6 apples
Apricot jam
Pie dough, either pre-made or make your own
Cinnamon
Cupcake tin
To Make:
I soak the cut up apple slices in lemon to keep them from browning. If you use the brand new Crimson Crisp apples that don’t brown for a year, you can skip this step.
I do this because I often get sidetracked.
Once apple slices are blotted to dry, cut the pie crust into long 3-inch strips.
Cover with apricot jam. This year I have an appricot and raspberry jam to try.
Line up the apple slices in the middle of the pie dough; sprinkle with cinnamon to taste.
Cover apple slices with the other pie dough half.
Once rolled up, place the apple slices in pie dough in a cupcake tin lined with butter.
Bake for 10 minutes in 350F oven until pie dough is baked.
Serve as is or you can add a dolop of whipped cream or better yet, drizzle with honey.
