RECIPE FOR MY MINI APPLE ROSE TARTS!

A while ago I filmed an apple tart recipe with my mum and grandma on YouTube and I wanted to write out the step by step recipe for anyone wanting to try it! This is my favourite easy impressive pudding to make when I want to host a dinner party or even just make a kitchen snack for the week!

STEP 2: Brush a layer of apricot jam onto each column

STEP 3: Core the red apples (I used 2 apples for 5/6 tarts)

STEP 4: Slice the apples finely

STEP 5: Place the slices of apple in a bowl and cover with water and a squeeze of lemon

STEP 6: Put the bowl into the microwave and warm for a couple of minutes until you are able to roll the apple slices

STEP 7: Preheat the oven to 180 degrees celsius

STEP 8: Sieve the apples from the water

STEP 9: Layer the apples over each other along each strip of puff pastry with the skin of the apple slightly outside the puff pastry

STEP 10: Fold the filo pastry over the apple

STEP 11: Roll from one end to the other to create an apple rose flower and place into a cupcake tin

STEP 12 (optional): Sprinkle cinnamon and/or brown sugar over the roses to add some extra flavour and crunch

STEP 13: Put in the oven for 40-45 mins until golden and DELICIOUS!
