Cinnamon Honey APPLE TARTS
These rose-shaped apple tarts look so elegant and present beautifully. This recipe comes from my friend Gaby, who was inspired by the delicious flavors of our SPICE + LEAF Cinnamon Honey to
create this exquisite dessert. It will most definitely impress your guests.
Makes 8
Ingredients:
2 honey crisp apples
juice of 1 lemon
2 cups of water
1 roll of puff pastries
1 jar of SPICE + LEAF Cinnamon Honey
Tools & Supplies:
Mandoline
Parchment paper baking cups
Muffin tray
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Prepare your muffin tin.
Line a muffin tray with parchment paper cups and set aside
Slice the apples.
Fill a medium bowl with water and add lemon juice. Cut apples in half, remove the cores, and carefully slice them thinly
using a mandoline. Place the slices immediately into the bowl of water to prevent browning.
Prepare the puff pastry:
Unfold the puff pastry dough on a flat surface. Cut it into 4 even strips, then cut each strip in half to create 8 smaller
strips total.
Assemble the roses.
• Take one strip of puff pastry and brush it with cinnamon honey.
• Arrange apple slices (rounded edge up) along the top half of the strip, overlapping slightly. Leave the bottom half
of the pastry uncovered so you can fold it later.
• Brush a little more honey over the apple slices.
Forming the rose.
Fold the bottom half of the puff pastry up over the base of the apple slices, tucking them in slightly like a blanket.
Starting from one end, gently roll the pastry strip to form a rose shape. Place the rolled tart into a parchment-lined muffin cup. Repeat with the remaining strips.
Bake at 375°F for 35–40 minutes, or until puff pastry is a golden crisp.
Let cool slightly before removing from the muffin tin.
Optional: Dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with a little extra honey if desired.
