Creating sauteed apple roses is a beautiful challenge that will take you a couple tries to get right. Adding in an oatmeal extra is even more difficult.
We have found a solution to making apple roses more breakfast-y, and it’s taking out the pastry base and adding the oatmeal base instead.
We couldn’t find any recipes that did this by itself, so instead we will show you how to make an oatmeal crust that you can use while following the other recipes!
It might take a couple tries to get it right, but you’ll be making an edible garden in no time!

Crusted Apple Roses (By Preppy Kitchen)
This crusted base can be easily replaced with an oatmeal alternative. Simply ignore the “For the Pâte Sucrée” section of the instructions and make Mama Gourmand’s pastry instead! The rest of the recipe is simple, and you’ll end up with a delicious and gorgeous apple rose!
Baked Apple Roses (By All Recipes)
All Recipes are aiming to make the classic apple rose method easier by eliminating the sauteed frying. Instead, they suggest microwaving the sliced apples for around 45 seconds. This speeds up the cooking process and makes the apples malleable.
Apple Roses Recipe (By The Seaman Mom)
The Seaman Mom’s recipe involves using a puff pastry strip, lining the apple slices along one side, and making them overlap. Then they tell you to roll the pastry to make an easy rose pattern. If you use the oatmeal pie crust above, this method won’t work.
We suggest following The Seaman Mom with this easy peasy method for a quicker and simpler guide.
