G'day peoples,
today I present to you a recipe that I tried for the first time.
And I twisted it a bit by smoking these instead of baking.
Smoked Apple Roses
1 pkg Puff Pastry, or homemade
2-3 apples, cored, halved and sliced thin
1 lemon, juiced
Favorite fruit jelly (optional)
Cinnamon sugar mix (optional)
Butter, melted (optional)
1 egg, for egg wash
1T water, for egg wash
Preheat oven or smoker to at least 375°-400°.
I used apple wood for a very light smoke.
Core, halve and thinly slice apples
Pour lemon juice over them to maintain color
Put in microwave 30-45 seconds or saute on stove top until slices are just tender and pliable enough to bend without breaking.
Thaw pastry and roll out thin till you can cut 3"x14" strips
On each strip you can either thinly coat with
1) Butter and cinnamon/sugar mix
2) Jelly
3) Jelly and cinnamon/sugar mix
I used Cinnamon Pear Jam and cinnamon/sugar, as I wanted sticky sweet goodness.
On each pastry strip over lap apple slices with slices just above edge of pastry
Fold opposing edge of pastry pastry back over slices
Paint with egg wash and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar mix
Loosely roll strip on itself and place in buttered ramekins or cupcake pan
Bake till pastry just starts to turn color, take care not to burn apples.
Sprinkle with more cinnamon/sugar mix or powdered sugar
