Apple Roses

(on phone)

This recipe is apple roses and one of my favorite recipes.

The first thing we did was cut up our apples into thin slices. If they are too thick, they the rose won't work. Next we soaked the apples in lime water so they didn't brown.

Next we took our filo dough and cut them into strips so we have 12.

We then spread the apricot jam onto the strips.

Then we lined the apples, overlapping each other and only going down half way down the strip.

Once the apples were on, we folded the bottom half up, covering part of the apples. We then rolled them up into a cinnamon roll form and put them into the cupcake pan.

We took the cinnamon and sugar mixture and sprinkled it over the tops of the roses.

Next we cooked them in the oven. When they came out, we sprinkled powdered sugar over them.

Despite the filo dough sticking to the pan and the roses looking kind of ugly, they tasted really good. The apples were warm and cinnamony. The filo dough made a nice crunchy texture around the roses. The apples were also really sticky from the cinnamon and the apricot jam.

The roses didn't quite turn out picture perfect, but they were very good and I recommend this to people to make!:)
