MINI APPLE PIES (SO EASY, NOT MUCH HASSLE!)
These little tasty treats are always a hit. They taste just like an apple pie, except they are mini sized and easy to eat. They are great to take to a party because there is not cutting and serving needed. People always rave about these. I think their pretty tasty too! My hubby loves to eat them warm with vanilla ice cream on the side. Maybe a little caramel sauce drizzled over top! Mmmmm...

MINI APPLE PIE
There's something magical about petite desserts. Perhaps it's the promise of a bite-sized satisfaction for the sweet tooth, but regardless the reason for their appeal, miniature desserts are convenient to have at get togethers so your guests can simply pick one (or two) up and not fuss with slicing or fumble with a fork and a plate. Our Mini Apple Pies are exactly what they sound like-a layer of buttery pie crust surrounding a spiced apple filling and topped with either a sheet of pie crust or delicately woven lattice. The trick to these little beauties is patience. Pie dough requires time to hydrate in the fridge, and it's imperative to freeze the pie shells before baking because this prevents the pie dough from sliding down the walls of the muffin tin or from puffing up dramatically. Honeycrisp apples are used in the filling because they are both sweet and tart, cooking down with the lemon and spices to make a perfectly bright and flavorful apple filling.

Steps:
- Make Pie Dough: In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Using a pastry cutter or your hands, cut in the cold butter and shortening until only pea-sized pieces remain. Add 3 tablespoons water and work with your hands to combine. Add up to 2 more tablespoons, 1 tablespoon at a time, until dough clumps. Gently knead dough until it comes together. Divide dough in half, shape each half into a disk, and wrap both disks in plastic wrap. Chill at least 2 hours.
- Spray a 12-cup muffin pan generously with cooking spray and set aside. Remove one dough disk from refrigerator. Unwrap and on a lightly floured surface, roll disk out to 1/8-inch thickness. Use a 3 1/2-inch round pastry cutter to cut 12 circles from the dough, re-rolling scraps as needed. Place each circle inside 1 of the muffin cups and use your fingers to press the dough into the cup so that it is even with the bottom and sides of each muffin cup. Once all cups are filled, freeze pan for at least 2 hours.
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Transfer muffin pan directly from freezer to oven until the pie dough is almost cooked through, about 13 minutes. Remove from oven and use the back of a spoon to press down any areas that have puffed up during baking. Set aside to cool.
- Make Filling: combine apples, sugar, butter, lemon, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt in a medium saucepan, and stir over medium-high heat until apples have softened and liquid has slightly thickened, about 15 minutes. Remove 2 tablespoons of the hot liquid to a small bowl. Add cornstarch to the bowl and whisk with a fork until no lumps remain. Transfer cornstarch slurry to saucepan with apples and stir in. Bring mixture to a boil for 1 minute before removing from heat.
- Scoop 1 tablespoon of apple filling into each muffin cup. Roll out remaining disk of pie dough on a lightly floured surface and using a 2 1/2-inch round pastry cutter, cut out 12 more rounds of dough. Either place these directly on top of the apple filling and press the sides into the bottom crust, or cut each circle into 1/4-inch wide strips and make a lattice on top of each mini pie. Make Egg Wash by whisking together egg and water. Brush the surface of each pie with egg wash. Bake until tops are golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes. Remove pies from muffin pan and allow to cool before serving.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425°F.
- Roll the pie crusts out to 1/8" thickness on a lightly floured surface. Using a 3.5-inch cookie cutter (or a cup) cut out 12 circles from the pie crusts. Re-roll any scrap pieces of pie dough as needed to cut out the circles.
- Place each circle of pie crust in each cavity of a standard 12-count muffin pan. Gently press the dough down and around the sides, making sure the dough fits snuggly in each cavity of the muffin pan. Transfer the muffin pan and any leftover pie crust dough to the refrigerator while you make the filling.
- In a large mixing bowl, mix together the chopped apples, sugar, flour, ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, and ground nutmeg until fully combined. Remove the muffin pan from the refrigerator and evenly distribute the apple pie filling between all of the cavities in the muffin pan (about 2-3 tablespoons per mini pie).
- Remove the extra pie dough from the refrigerator, cut out your designs for the tops of the pies, and place them on top.
- Bake at 425°F for 20-25 minutes or until the pie crust is lightly golden brown and the filling is bubbly. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool for 10-15 minutes. Carefully remove the mini pies from the pan and transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling.
MINI APPLE PIES
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Place the phyllo shells on a baking sheet and bake until crisp, about 5 minutes. Remove from the oven (keep the oven on) and let cool.
- For the filling: Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the apples, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt and lemon juice. Cook, stirring often, until the apples start to soften and release some juices, about 4 minutes. Add the sugar and continue to cook, stirring often, until the sugar has dissolved, about 2 minutes more.
- Stir together the cornstarch and 2 tablespoons of water in a small bowl. Stir into the apple mixture and cook, stirring often, until the liquid is very thick, about 2 minutes more. Stir in the vanilla, remove from the heat and set aside.
- For the granola crisp topping: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Stir together the oats, flour, sugar, cinnamon, salt, butter and honey and spread the mixture on the baking sheet, using your hands to form some small clumps. Bake until browned and crisp, about 10 minutes. Remove from the oven, stir in the almonds and let cool.
- To assemble, add a heaping tablespoon of the filling to each phyllo shell, followed by a tablespoon of the topping. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:
- Combine flour, white sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Cut in cubed butter using a pastry blender, 2 knives, or your fingertips until mixture resembles coarse meal. Stir in water until dough just comes together into a ball.
- Form the dough into a disc. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and chill for at least 1 hour.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a muffin tin with butter.

- Lay 10 apple slices in a horizontal line on a flat work surface with the skin side facing you; arrange slices so that each slice overlaps the previous slice by half. Roll up the slices tightly from one end to the other. Arrange 2 to 8 additional slices around the outside of each apple rose to reach desired size. Repeat with remaining slices to form 8 more apple roses.
- Combine remaining 1/4 cup brown sugar and 2 tablespoons melted butter in a small bowl; brush over the bottom of each dough cup. Place an apple rose in each cup.
- Bake in the preheated oven until dough turns golden and apples are cooked through, 25 to 30 minutes.

Steps:
- Make the filling: Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the apple and cook for 2-3 minutes, until tender. Add the sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt and stir to coat.
- In a liquid measuring cup or small bowl, stir together water and cornstarch, then add to the apple mixture. Cook until the filling has thickened, 2-4 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat and let cool.
- Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C).
- Prepare the crust: Lightly dust the pie dough with flour, then roll out to ⅛-inch thick. Use a 3-inch round cutter to cut out 40 circles. Chill 20 circles in the refrigerator until ready to use.
- Arrange the mini jar lids on a baking sheet and spray with vegetable oil. Gently press a dough circle into each lid, letting any excess dough hang over the sides.
- Add 1 teaspoon of filling into each pie shell.
- Remove the remaining dough circles from the refrigerator and cut into ¹⁄₁₆-inch strips. Crisscross the 4 longest strips from each circle on top of the filling to make lattices. Use a fork to press around the edges of the mini pies to seal the dough together, then use scissors to trim off any excess dough. Brush the tops of the pies with beaten egg.
- Bake the mini pies for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool.
- Reduce the oven temperature to 200 (95°C). Line a baking sheet with a nonstick mat or parchment paper.
- Make the meringue: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment (or in a large bowl with an electric hand mixer) beat the egg whites, cream of tartar, and salt on high speed until foamy and soft peaks form, 1-2 minutes. Gradually add the sugar and continue beating on high speed until the meringue is glossy and forms stiff peaks, 1-2 more minutes. Transfer the meringue to a piping bag or zip-top bag with a corner snipped off.
- Pipe the meringue into tiny dollops on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 40-60 minutes, or until meringues are dried all the way through and easy to lift from the baking sheet.
- Remove the pies from the jar lids. Pipe a tiny bit of vanilla frosting onto the center of each pie, then stick a meringue dollop on top.
- Serve the mini pies in a bowl with whole milk, or arrange on a platter to share.
- Enjoy!
