Mini Stuffed Apple Pies
This is my new favorite dessert, and it’s perfect for this time of year. If you’re new here, I LOVE DESSERT. Any kind, really. These mini stuffed apple pies are cute, easy, and so delicious!
Ingredients:
4 Granny Smith apples
Pie crust (store bought)
1/4 cup honey
2 tsp. cinnamon
1 egg for egg wash
Cinnamon sugar blend
Melon baller
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Step 1:
Slice the tops off the apples and remove the core and fruit using a melon baller. You will want to scoop until the walls of the apple bowl are about 1/8-1/4 inches thick. Discard apple cores and place scooped apple pieces into a bowl.
Side note: The thickness of your apple bowls should be about the same, so they bake evenly.
Step 2:
Warm honey in the microwave for 10-15 seconds. Stir cinnamon into warm honey.
Step 3:
Pour honey and cinnamon over apple pieces. Stir until evenly coated.
Step 4:
Once coated, distribute apple pieces evenly between the four apple bowls.
Step 5:
Unroll pie crust and cut into 1/8-1/4-inch strips. Weave the strips on top of the apples to create mini pie crust lattices!
Step 6:
Brush pie crusts with egg wash and sprinkle cinnamon sugar mix over the tops.
Step 7:
Bake for 30-45 minutes. I personally like a little crunch in my apples, so I baked them for 35 minutes. If you prefer to have no crunch, go closer to 45 minutes. You’ll want to keep a close eye on them so the crust doesn’t burn in the last few minutes.
Step 8:
Allow pies to cool (a little). Add a scoop of your favorite vanilla ice cream and caramel syrup on top!
Okay, I’M DROOLING! These are so fun and easy. I showed my grandma, and she said, “Looks easier to make a pie!” But these were faster because I didn’t have to slice so many apples. These mini apple pies are adorable and much easier than they look!
Have the best day and don’t forget to pass the pie ;)
Always and Whatever
