Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

For the Filling
  • 2 cups diced apples (e.g., Granny Smith, Fuji)
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
For the Crust
  • 1 package pre-made pie crusts
  • 1 ea egg (for egg wash)
  • Flour (for dusting)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a bowl, combine the diced apples, sugar, cinnamon, and lemon juice. Stir until the apples are well coated.
  3. Lightly dust your work surface with flour. Roll out the pre-made pie crusts to about 1/8-inch thickness. Using a round cutter or a glass, cut out circles that fit your mini pie tins.
  4. Place the crust circles into the mini pie tins. Fill each with the apple mixture, ensuring you don’t overfill.
  5. Roll out the remaining crust and cut out smaller circles or other shapes for the tops. Place them over the filling and crimp the edges to seal. Create a few slits for ventilation.
  6. Beat the egg in a small bowl and brush the mixture on top of each mini pie for that golden finish.
Baking
  1. Place the pies in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.
  2. Once baked, remove from the oven and let them sit for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

Store leftover Mini Apple Pies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. For freezing, place in a freezer-safe bag and store for up to three months. To reheat, bake at 350°F (175°C) for about 10-15 minutes.
