Apple roses

Tonight we have some friends coming for supper so I have been cooking and baking a few bits and pieces. I have spatchcocked and roasted a chicken,  made some apple roses and cheese nibbles. I made cucumber and mint yogurt dip,  beetroot and cucumber yoghurt dip..  I have made a huge pasta salad. I have the quail scotch eggs and some delicious raspberry and rhubarb jellies.

Blogger is playing up and won't let me post a photo of the lightly cooked apple slices spread along the pastry so just use your imagination. I cooked the apple slices to make the pastries easier to roll up





Bake at 180 fan for about twenty minutes. Dredge with icing sugar and serve with good ice cream

      It was really petty and very tasty. I am planning to make buffet suppers a little more creative when we have friends over from now on.

    Everything sounds delicious, and the apple roses are a feast for the eyes as well as the stomach. Have a good time!

      They are pretty aren't they. So easy to make too. Perhaps you and Ruby could make some together. I buy the ready made puff pastry.

    They look just lovely! I am sure they must smell wonderful as they are baking too. Meg:)

      They did smell and taste very nice. I think I might make a Christmas version with sweet mince and apple instead of jam

    These are lovely. Some years ago I found a recipe for making apple pastry desserts in a Russian cookbook. We moved several thousand miles away and I can't find them anywhere. There was just pastry and (if I remember correctly) you just cut them in a certain way before baking and they opened up into little roses. I have tried googling etc.
    Yours would likely be a lot more delicious because of the extra flavours.
