  5. Roll out the pie crust into a rectangle about 6-8 inches long.
  6. Cut crust into 3 inch wide strips.
  7. Take one strip at a time and using the back of a spoon spread out the preserves mixture.
  8. Layer the apples horizontally across the crust.
  9. Fold the bottom portion of the crust up and press with fingers to "seal".
  10. Roll up crust with apples coming out of the top tightly so it looks like a rose.
  11. Place each rolled rose into a greased muffin pan.
  12. Sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar to taste.
  13. Bake at 350 degrees for 14-17 minutes until crust is golden.
  14. Serve with whip or al la mode and enjoy a beautiful treat!
