Tonight my YouTube video for the Apple Roses hit one million views ... all in less than a week.
It's HUGE! So thank you all for watching, liking, sharing, following, subscribing to my channel and writing such sweet and encouraging comments. I'm deeply thankful.
And in case you missed it, here is the video again :-)
Have an amazing weekend!
What an absolute mess! Has anyone other than Manuela been able to roll these? The apples break or pop out. Nothing about this looks good. Maybe it will taste good but I have never had such a failure in baking.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry it didn't work out for you. If you'd like you can check the recipe post, which has a bit more information than the video, here: http://cookingwithmanuela.blogspot.com/2015/03/apple-roses.html.
DeleteHave a great weekend!
Slice your apples thinner, maybe?
DeleteMaybe slice the apple more thinly, or cook them a bit longer. They should be bendable.
DeleteRoses are fantastic. I swirl enough calmly and gently and I had no problem. Delicious and inventive. Thank you :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!!! So happy that it worked for you :-)
DeleteI made these exactly as stated in the recipe and they came out beautifully. However, even though I cooked them longer the inside part of the dough was very soft, not flaky at all. I would love to make these again and try them as a savory dish with pear slices and gorgonzola. Any advice on how to get a more flaky inside? Thank you!
ReplyDeleteHi! In my roses also the middle part was not as puffed as the outer part of the pastry. I think it's probably the moist of the apples and the butter in the crust. One reader wrote me that she covered the roses for the first 30 minutes, and baked it uncovered for the rest. I haven't tried it yet, so I'm not sure it would fix the problem (maybe it keeps more moist inside?!?) But I do want to try it out. Thank you!!
DeleteThese look fabulous I really would love to give them a try! soooooon xx
ReplyDeleteI am following your blog my email so look forward to seeing what else you post!
Grazie xx

DeleteCara Manuela, on this weekend I cooked home-made italian pizza and wonderful croissants, everything was soooo perfect!
ReplyDeleteIl successo stimola a compiere un atto di eroismo, vorrei cucinare questi rose di mele )))

Bravissima! Vedrai che anche questi dolcetti alle mele ti riusciranno!! :-)
DeleteI have just made them!! They look fabulous! I hope the taste is as fantastic as the look as we haven't tried them yet! I am going to put the pic on my FB mentioning that it's your recipe if you don't mind! Thank you!!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!! Please do. I love seeing your pictures!! Thanks again
Deletecan change the sweet peach by sweet red fruit?
ReplyDeleteYes, it should work well too. You need something sweet that makes the pastry sweeter! Enjoy :)
DeleteCan I use Granny Smith or Fuji apples instead of Red Delicious?
ReplyDeleteYes!! I mostly used red delicious for their beautiful deep red color ... To make a bouquet of red roses :-)
DeleteDo you have a text version of the directions? I'd like to try this but it's hard to print out a video for later. :)
ReplyDeleteHi!! Yes! Here is the original blog post, and I added a "printable recipe" which doesn't have the pictures (right next to the list of ingredients) : http://cookingwithmanuela.blogspot.com/2015/03/apple-roses.html
DeleteLove to make different deserts I tried these tonight for a party I had to go to and they were a hit Once I got the hang of it it was so easy I also used some cinnamon sugar on top and it added just a bit more sweetness they were a hit at the party tank you for posting there apple rose desert
ReplyDeleteThank you for trying my recipe and taking the time to comment here! Have an amazing day :)
DeleteTried the recipe for dinner yesterday....it had come soo nice, everyone loved how beautiful they looked and tasted too :) . I'm very new to baking and this recipe is simple, fast and delicious .
ReplyDeleteI had prepared rough puff pastry and instead of apricot ,had used strawberry..it tasted yumm
Thanks for sharing recipe :)
Thank you so much Roopa!!! I'm really happy you liked it :)
DeleteThanks a lot Manuela!
ReplyDeleteI baked apple roses today. Beautiful and delicious!
Thank you Galina!!
DeleteI had to cook mine much longer but they still turned out beautiful. They were an absolute crowd pleaser. I did have quite a few issues with baking them, though. It was really messy, the apricot jam spilled over the top and left a burnt sugar crust the metal during baking. The roses looked and tasted fine but nearly all of them lost the outer ring of the pastry as I had to cut them out of the forms.
ReplyDeleteHave you ever made them in a metal tin? Next time I'll use less jam, a silicone form and I'll roll out the pastry thinner. Thanks for the recipe though.
The apples broke and it was a complete mess, too.
