Position a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F.
Beat the egg and water together in a small bowl; reserve. Pulse apple rings in a mini food processor for 30-45 seconds to medium dice; reserve.
Trim excess fat and silver skin from pork tenderloin. Slice lengthwise into 2 pieces, then align end-to-end for even thickness.
On a 12x16-inch parchment sheet, overlap prosciutto slices to match tenderloin length. Top with another parchment, roll to fuse, then discard top sheet. Season with salt, pepper, and thyme. Center tenderloin, stuff with apples, press halves together, and roll prosciutto tightly around it using parchment edges.
Dust surface with flour; roll puff pastry to 12x14-inch rectangle. Spread mustard in center, place prosciutto bundle on top. Fold pastry over, seal with egg wash, flip seam-side down, and crimp ends securely.
Brush entire pastry with egg wash. Bake on parchment-lined half sheet pan 25-30 minutes until pork reaches 140F internally.
Rest on wire rack 10 minutes before slicing. Revel in the juicy, golden perfection!
