Puff Pastry Apple Cinnamon Flower

Okay, so I love apple desserts, so when I saw this one on instagram I really wanted to try it.  It was a video in another language so I did my best to interpret what was going on.

Things I would do differently next time.
-Not spread at much butter (I know...not as much butter?? What?? But yes not at much butter by just a little bit)
-Cut my apples thinner.  I already thought I cut them pretty thin, but you want them cut thin enough to be able to roll them without breaking.  I did have quite a few cut like that but not enough so some of my apples broke.

1 sheet of puff pastry
About 3 tbsp sugar and 1-2 tsp cinnamon mixed together. (The cinnamon really is your preference)
About 2 tbsp butter (Room temperature)
1-2 apples
Lemon juice
(Makes 5 flowers)













Follow thawing directions on puff pastry box
Preheated my over to 375 degrees
Cut my apples and put lemon juice on them so they wouldn't brown
Sprayed a cupcake pan
Mixed my cinnamon and sugar together
Rolled out my puff pastry to help any cracks come back together.
Cut it into 5 strips (the video did 4 strips)
Spread the butter
Sprinkled the sugar mixture
Placed the apples on half the sheet and folded over.  I pinched the sides to they wouldn't open
Then rolled it up. Placed in a cupcake pan
Cooked for 35-40 mins.
Sprinkled powdered sugar.
Ate two of them...oops!! :)
