Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
4 apples, cored and halved (leave the skin on)
Juice from lemon
3 T. fruit preserves ( I used apricot but you can use your favorite fruit)
2 T. water (plus more for apple soak)
2 sheet s of puff pastry
Cinnamon, to taste (added a little bit of sugar to my cinnamon)

Directions:
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 375º.

Slice thinly (1/8") the cored and halved apples. Put apple slices in microwave safe bowl. Fill bowl with water and juice from half a lemon. Use enough water to make sure apple slices are covered by water. Microwave for 3 minutes. This will soften the apple slices and make them more pliable for rolling up.

Next grab a sheet of puff pastry. Flour your board and roll out the puff pastry enough to make 6 strips at 3 inches wide. I scored and cut mine with a pizza wheel put you can use a knife.

In a bowl mix your favorite fruit preserves with a couple tablespoons of water. Then spoon and spread out the preserves in the center of the strip of puff pastry.

Next place the apple slices long ways halfway on the strip. Keep adding slices until you reach the end. Sprinkle cinnamon sugar on the apples and pastry. Then fold the puff pastry over the bottom of the apple slices.

Roll up the puff pastry (if the apples don't roll easily, they might need a little more time in the microwave) and place in a greased muffin tin.

Bake the apple roses for 35-45 minutes.

Pull out of oven and let cool for 5 minutes.

Personal Notes:
This is the first pastry I have ever made that looked so beautiful. These are really very easy to make. Just take your time rolling up the apple filled pastry. I reheated them the next day in the microwave for a few minutes. Yummy.
