Happy Wednesday!

Last week was the official announcement of Fall. And Fall = Apples. Yes, apples are around here. Well, I think apples are everywhere.

So why not starting this Wednesday with some KILLER Apple Rose Mini Tartlets.

Would it be easy to make these?

Mmmmm, I think this is one of the bestest, cutest and easiest dessert ever. And you can have them as breakfast, brunch or a tea time snack. 😀

I think apples and I are having a love affair right now. Is it weird to have a love affair with food? I hope all of you foodies out there would feel the same with some of your favourite foods. And apple is so healthy too.

They are so sweet, delicious, crispy, juicy and and so YUMMY! Remember “An apple a day keeps the doctor away.” It indeed does.

And a crazy thing, that I made a pizza with apples, and that was so yummmy. Yeaaaah! Apples taste so good with EVERYTHING.

Coming to these Apple Rose Mini Tartlets — I fell in love with these charming apple rose tartlets when I first saw them some months ago. I can’t exactly recall when and where, but think it was spring when I saw them in a facebook post.

They were so pretty, so couldn’t wait until I tried my own version. They looked so lovely that I had to try them soon after.

However I just only saw the photo, and could not find out what they were called. After a couple of failed searches I got the name finally. And to my surprise google images were full of these beauties. I mean, there were plenty of these tartlets.

And at that time, I felt like how the hell I did not know about these when they are so popular.

I checked a couple of recipes and then I realized how damn easy they were. They literally don’t need any measurements or instructions. Believe me these are easiest yet prettiest tartlets I have ever seen.

You will be surprised that making these simply beautiful desserts is so easy. But initially I thought making them would be extremely hard. FYI, I was wrong about that! I am happy that I was wrong, because I just LOVE easy recipes.

And they came out as pretty as jewels. I mean these are just so beautiful that I can just watch them for hours. They are a nice sight to watch — simply food for the eyes! 🙂

I think this is the best Fall sweet treat with apples. And I am so much in LOVE with these gorgeous tartlets.

There are many variations of this alluring dessert. They are made with apricot jam, and some are made with cinnamon. There are also several ways you can prepare them.

You can also make your own dough if you like, or simply use store bought frozen puff pastries, like I do always. One thing is always present in my freezer — the puff pastry sheets. I never run out of these, because I just love them. 😉

Seriously, making dishes with these ready pastry sheets are much easier and a lot quicker!

What you have to do is that you need thawed pastry sheets. The one thing you need to make sure is that these sheets should not be too thick, as they might not cook properly.

I spread mine with butter and cinnamon sugar. Then cut 2 apples in half from top to bottom. Sliced them really thin. I wanted them soft but not mushy so cooked them for 60 seconds.

Making them soft is so easy to work with. And then just only one fun thing remained — to roll the dough. Place the apples slices. Fold, and brush with egg wash. Sprinkle with some more cinnamon sugar. Bake! And the best part, you can eat it straight out of the oven.

Warm desserts are awesome. Ain’t they?

Ta-dah! Alluring. Gorgeous. Delicious little apple rose Apple Rose Mini Tartlets are ready to AMAZE your family and friends.
