Instructions
 

  • Prepare your muffin tin by spraying with a non-stick cooking spray or brushing with butter.
  • Preheat your oven to 375℉ / 190℃.
  • Combine the water and lemon juice in a medium saucepan.
  • Next, slice and core your apples. (keep the skin on) Make thin slices.
  • Add your slices to the lemon water mixture as you go, to prevent further browning.
  • After you are done slicing your apples, mix together the cream cheese (or alternative) and the honey until smooth and well incorporated.
  • Now, lay out your thawed puff pastry sheets on a slightly floured surface.
  • Cut into six even strips.
  • Use a rolling pin to slightly roll and thin/stretch them out a bit more.
  • Lightly smear the cream cheese mixture onto the top half of each pastry section.
  • Next, sprinkle the cinnamon (or cinnamon sugar) over the smeared cream cheese.
  • Make sure to pat your apple slices dry with a paper towel and then start layering on top of the cream cheese.
  • Fold up bottom half to top half, but leave top of apple slices exposed.
  • Now, start at one end and carefully roll up and place into prepared muffin tin.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 35-40 minutes or until slightly browned.
  • Serve warm, and for a little added sweetness sift some powdered sugar on top.
