Step 1
Fill a mixing bowl with water lemon juice, and transfer sliced apples to bowl as you chop. (This will stop them from browning)
Step 2
Bring a pot of water to boil and add sliced apples for 1-2 minutes. They should be slightly soft, but not breaking. Strain apples from water and place apple slices onto clean dish towel. Pat dry.
Step 3
Roll out your puff pastry onto work station and cut into 8 thin strips, approx. 3 inches wide.
Step 4
In a saucepan, combine fig jam and 1/2 cup water. Stir to combine until jam is thick but runny, and easy to spread.
Step 5
Preheat oven to 375C/190F. Lightly oil muffin tray cavities. One at a time, spread a thin layer of jam onto the puff pastry strip. Arrange apple slices, overlapping each other at the middle point of each slice, along the top of the pastry strip. Make sure the skin side of the slices stick half-way out of the pastry strip.
Step 6
Fold in the bottom half of the dough to seal in the apple wedges. Then, starting from one end, carefully roll the dough to make a flower. Seal the flower edge at the end by pressing with your finger, and place the apple flower in your muffin cavity.
Step 7
Continue Step 5 and Step 6 for the rest of your puff pastry; adding jam, apple slices, and rolling the pastry into flower shapes. Until you've used all your puff pastry and apples. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until golden and cooked.
