Method written by CompKitchen from the ingredient list. Not the original author's method, not kitchen-tested.

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease a baking dish, using the butter only for the sauce.

2. Toss the finely chopped apple with 1/8 teaspoon apple pie spice in a small bowl.

3. Pound each chicken breast to an even thickness. Lay a slice of prosciutto on each, top with a quarter of the apple mixture, roll up and secure with toothpicks.

4. Place the rolls seam side down in the baking dish and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the thickest part reaches 165°F (74°C).

5. While the chicken bakes, melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat.

6. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.

7. Gradually whisk in the milk, 1/2 teaspoon apple pie spice and a dash of black pepper. Simmer 3 to 5 minutes, stirring, until thickened.

8. Remove the toothpicks from the chicken, slice the rolls if desired, and serve with the spiced sauce spooned over top.
