Ingredients
Scale
1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
1 large apple
2 tablespoons apricot jam
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
Powdered sugar, for dusting
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a mini muffin tin.
In a small bowl, mix together the apricot jam, lemon juice, cinnamon, and granulated sugar.
Core the apple and slice it thinly. You can peel it if you prefer.
Unroll the puff pastry sheet and cut it into four equal strips.
Lightly brush each puff pastry strip with the jam mixture.
Arrange the apple slices along one long edge of each pastry strip, overlapping them slightly.
Fold the other long edge of the pastry strip over the apples.
Gently roll up each strip to form a rose shape.
Place each rose into a mini muffin cup.
Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed.
Let the tarts cool slightly before dusting with powdered sugar.
Notes
Use a mandoline slicer for perfectly thin apple slices.
If you don’t have apricot jam, peach or even raspberry jam can be used.
For extra sparkle, sprinkle a little extra sugar on top before baking.
