Beauty and The Beast Enchanted Apple Tart Roses Recipe

Beauty and The Beast Enchanted Apple Tart Roses

What You’ll Need

•

1 extra-large red-skinned apple (gala apples work especially well)

•

3 tablespoons water

•

2 tablespoons sugar

•

1 tablespoon lemon juice

•

2 tablespoons coconut oil

•

¾ cup gluten-free, nut-free all-purpose flour, plus more for rolling out the dough

•

¼ teaspoon xanthan gum

•

¼ teaspoon salt

•

Dash of cinnamon

How To Make It

• 1
  Heat the oven to 375 degrees F. Meanwhile, cut the apple in half and remove the core, but don’t peel it. Cut the halves into thin slices (¼ inch thick or so).
• 2
  Combine the apple slices, water, sugar, and lemon juice in a saucepan. Simmer the slices for 4 to 5 minutes. Then remove them from the pan to cool, reserving the cooking liquid.
• 3
  Stir the coconut oil into 2 tablespoons of the cooking liquid (adding water if you don’t have enough). If need be, heat the mixture just until the oil melts. Transfer the liquid to a mixing bowl.
• 4
  Combine the flour, xanthan gum, salt, and cinnamon in a sifter. Sift the dry ingredients into the liquid. Stir until the mixture forms a sticky dough.
• 5
  Dust a sheet of waxed paper with gluten-free, nut-free all-purpose flour. Shape the dough into a disk, and set it atop the dusted paper. Sprinkle more flour atop the dough, and then cover it with another sheet of waxed paper. Roll out the dough between the sheets until it is about 3/8 inch thick, dusting it with more flour as needed to keep it from sticking to the paper.
• 6
  Fill a 6-cup muffin pan with paper liners. Use a round cookie cutter (3 inches wide or so) to cut out six pastry circles. Gently fit the pastry circles into the paper liners, using a spatula to lift them from the waxed paper.
• 7
  Bake the pastries for 8 minutes. Then remove them from the oven to cool slightly in the muffin pan.
• 8
  Top each pastry circle with 5 or 6 apple slices (red peels facing up), overlapping them slightly as you work from the outer edge toward the middle. Bake the roses for another 6 to 8 minutes. Serve them warm or cooled.

Candy Bar Stuffed Baked Apples Recipe!

 

Makes 4 apples

 

Ingredients:

1 tablespoon sugar
3/4 cup apple cider
1/2 cup finely chopped Snickers candy bars, divided
1/2 cup finely chopped skor chocolate-covered english toffee bar, divided (can sub Heath Bar)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 medium apples
vanilla ice cream (optional)

Directions:

1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
 

2 Place apples on a cutting board. With a sharp knife, carefully cut the top 1/2 inch from the top of each.
 

3 Using an apple corer or a small melon baller, scoop out the stem, core and seeds from each apple, leaving the bottom intact. Stand the apples in a 9 inch square baking dish, cut side up.
 

4 Divide 1/4 cup each chopped Snickers and Skor/Heath bar candy bars among the apples, about 2 tablespoons of candy per apple.
 

5 Place 1 1/2 teaspoon of butter inside each apple, on top of the candy bar pieces. Then divide the remainder 1/4 cup chopped candy bars among the apples.
 

6 In a small bowl, whisk together the cider and sugar and pour mixture over and around the apples. Carefully place baking dish in the oven and bake the apples uncovered until tender, about 1 hour and 20 minutes. (Original recipes states 1 hour and 20 minutes, but if cooked too long the apples become mealy. Start checking around 45 minutes.) Remove from oven and let sit 5 minutes.
 

7 Serve hot or warm, spoon the pan juices over apples and add vanilla ice cream if desired.
