Equipment
Ingredients
- 2-3 Apples
- 1 ( 173 oz.) Frozen Puff Pastry
- 1 Tablespoon lemon Juice
- 1 Tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 2 Tablespoon powdered sugar
- 1 Tablespoon melted butter optional, use plant based for vegan
Instructions
- Prepare: Thaw the puff pastry per package instructions. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Prepare the Apples: Core the apples and slice them thinly, keeping the peel for color. In a bowl, toss the apple slices with lemon juice to prevent browning. Dust some powdered sugar on them.
- Prepare the Puff Pastry: Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface to smooth out any creases. Using a pizza cutter, cut the pastry into strips, approximately 2 inches wide. Sprinkle some sugar and and ground cinnamon over the stripes for added sweetness and flavor.
- Make the Rose shaped puff pastry rolls : Place the apple slices along one edge of each pastry strip, slightly overlapping them. Fold the bottom half of the pastry over the apples. Roll the pastry strip into a spiral, creating the appearance of a rose. Seal the end of the strip to prevent it from unraveling. Place the apple roses in a muffin tin or on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the tops of the roses with the melted butter.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown and the apples are tender.
- Serve: While the pastries are still warm, sprinkle them with a mixture of powdered sugar and ground cinnamon for added flavor. Allow the Apple Rose Puff Pastries to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy !
How to Make Puff Pastry Apple Roses in Air Fryer

Notes
I prefer to use muffin liners to hold the pastry intact. It also helps with easier clean up.
If it’s your first time making Apple Rose Puff Pastry, consider doing a trial run. This allows you to familiarize yourself with the process and make adjustments before serving the final product to guests.
Use a mandolin or a sharp knife to achieve thin and uniform apple slices. This not only ensures even baking but also makes it easier to roll the pastry into a rose shape.
Puff pastry is best when it’s cold, so work quickly to prevent it from becoming too soft. If it becomes warm, it may not puff up as much during baking.
