Mini Apple Pies
These Mini Apple Pies are filled with cinnamon, sugar, chunks of sweet baking apples, and baked until the crust is golden brown.
Ingredients
- 2 pie crust homemade or store-bought
- 3 cups honeycrisp apples about 3 apples, peeled, cored, and diced
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1 1/2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 egg white
- 1/2 tablespoon water
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- In a large bowl, add in the diced apples.
- In a small bowl, add in the sugar, flour, and cinnamon. Stir until combined.
- Add the sugar and flour mixture to the bowl of apples and stir until the apples are coated. Set aside.
- Roll the pie crust out to about 1/8-inch thickness on a lightly floured surface. Using a round 3.5 inch to 4-inch cookie cutter or cup, cut out 12 circles. You may need to reroll the pie crust to get all 12 circles.
- Gently press a circle into each cavity of a cupcake pan.
- Fill each pie crust with the apple pie filling. There should be enough pie filling for all 12 mini pies.
- Set the cupcake pan aside.
- Roll out the second piece of pie crust to about 1/8-inch thickness on the lightly floured surface.
- Using a pizza cutter or knife, cut small strips in the pie crust for the tops of the pies. You can also use a 2 1/4-inch circle cookie cutter to make discs for the top.
- Add the strips or discs to the top of each pie.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the egg white and water until combined.
- Using a pastry brush, brush the egg wash on the tops of the pies.
- Place in the preheated oven and bake for 23 to 25 minutes until the tops are golden brown and the filling is slightly bubbly.
- Let cool for 10 to 20 minutes in the cupcake pan before removing. Let cool completely and serve with a dollop of whipped cream!
- I usually sprinkle fruit fresh on my apples to keep them from turning brown. You can also sprinkle about 1 teaspoon of lemon juice on them.
