Apple Pie Roses

By sassy47

Ingredients

• 1 sheet pre-made pie crust dough (rolled)
• 1 box instant vanilla pudding
• 2 cups milk
• 2-3 honey crisp apples
• Cinnamon sugar mix (1/2 cup sugar, 1 tsp cinnamon)

Preparation

Step 1

Mix instant vanilla pudding mix and milk until thickened. Chill in refrigerator if needed as per box instructions.
Preheat oven to 400.
Roll out pie crust. With a pizza cutter, make 6 slices lengthwise to make 7 strips.
Using a mandoline slicer, cut apples into thin slices, then line them up, overlapping along each dough strip. Apples should stick out slightly on top but not on bottom -- cut off ends if needed.
Roll up each strip to form rose shape, then set aside.
Spray muffin tins, then put 1 rounded tbsp of vanilla pudding in bottom of each cup. Place each apple rose roll-up into vanilla pudding base, then sprinkle cinnamon sugar on top. Bake for 10 minutes, until apples are browned on top and dough is cooked and golden.
