When food is prepared with love, I am convinced that the people who eat it can feel it. This is a great example of a simple dish that can be transformed with a bit of extra love and care.

Ingredients
1mediumsheet puff pastry
2mediumred apples
1/2mediumlemon
1tspjam
Instructions
Preheat oven to 180˚C. Squeeze half a lemon in a microwave-proof bowl. Thinly slice the apples and place it in the bowl and cover with water. Microwave the apples for 2-3 minutes, drain and set them aside.
In the meantime, mix the jam with a bit of hot water to make it thinner and easier to brush.
Cut pastry sheet into eight long equal strips. Brush a bit of jam across the middle of your first strip. Then place apple slices, overlapping across the top edge of the pastry strip, sitting just outside the edge.
Fold the pastry strip in half all along and roll it up into a tight scroll. Pop it into one of the muffin tray to hold its shape. Repeat 7 more times.
Bake in the oven for 30 – 45 mins, or until golden brown on the top and cooked through in the middle.
