Made these for Thanksgiving, complied from several different websites. Pretty happy with what I ended up with. Not very sweet, excellent with vanilla ice-cream.
3 Apples
3 Tablespoons Sugar
2 Tablespoons Lemon Juice (fresh squeezed)
1/4 teaspoon Cardamom
2 sheets thawed Puff Pastry
Preheat Oven to 400°F
Core the apples and slice very thinly.
Put apple slices in a saucepan with 4 cups of water, sugar and lemon juice. Simmer until apples are semi soft. (Bendy not mushy.)
Remove the apples from the saucepan, reserve a few Tablespoons of the syrup. Stir Cardamom into the reserved syrup.
Cut the puff pastry lengthwise into thirds (you'll get 6 strips from 2 sheets). Lay the sliced apples along the top edge of each pastry strip, slightly overlapping. Fold the bottom half of the strip the apple slices and then roll the pastry up lengthwise. Place each roll (the apple slices should be poking out the top like rose petals) into a muffin tray and brush with the cardamom syrup.
Bake for 25 minutes or until the pastry is fully cooked.
Cool slightly before removing from tray. I have made these ahead and then quickly reheated for dessert, sprinkled with sugar.
Look online to see how to put the roses together. There are lots of variations on this recipe, this is just mine.
