Apple roses are delicious, tasty desserts that are perfect for snack or breakfast. They are made with only 3 ingredients and are incredibly easy to make: just slice the apples thinly, place them on the pastry, roll them up, and you’re done! As you’ll see, it takes just 5 minutes to prepare them, and once you’ve tried them, you’ll always make them this way. This way, everyone will love the apples, even the little ones.
To cook the apple roses, you can use an air fryer or the oven. You’ll find all the cooking instructions below. I recommend using muffin molds, but in their absence, you can easily make them this way by placing them on parchment paper.

Ingredients
- 1 sheet rectangular puff pastry
- 1 apple
- to taste apricot jam (or other flavor as desired)
Tools
- Air Fryer
- Muffin Molds
Steps
First, cut the apple in half and then into very thin slices; to make the job easier, you can use a mandolin. Take one sheet of rectangular puff pastry and divide it into 4 long strips. Place the apple slices along the top part of the strip, slightly overlapping them and letting the skin side hang out. Now, fold the pastry to cover the apples and roll it up to form roses.
Take some muffin molds and spread a teaspoon of apricot jam or another flavor of your choice on the bottom. Place the apple roses with the bottom part of the apples down and cook in an air fryer at 338°F for 20-25 minutes or in a preheated oven at 356°F for 35-40 minutes.
Now just let them cool, and once the time has passed, you can remove them from the molds: they will be delicious, fragrant, and crispy. Enjoy!
