My Favorite Mini Apple Pies

By srumbel

My favorite part, you make them in a muffin pan, yes, they are easy too.
Don't like rolling out your dough to make a pie crust?
Good, neither do I...so I have a little shortcut for that too

Ingredients

• Crust
• 2/3 cup chilled butter cut into small cubes
• 1/2 t. salt
• 2 cups of flour or gluten free flour
• 4 T. cold water
• Apple Filling
• 6 medium apples, peeled, cored and cut into small pieces
• 1 cup of sugar
• 3 t. ground cinnamon
• 6 T. flour
• dash of salt
• add to the top of each apple pie:3 T. chilled butter cut into 12 small pieces

Preparation

Step 1

Crust
Using a fork mix the ingredients until well blended and mixture
looks like crumbs. Divide dough into 12 balls and press one
into the bottom of each un-greased muffin tin and up the sides
until the inside of each has it's own mini-pie crust.
If they are not perfect, it's ok.
In a large mixing bowl combine the following
and divide equally to fill each tin:

Filling
Bake for approximately 20-25 minutes depending on your oven,
until golden and bubbly.

Allow mini apple pies to cool a bit, and serve with warm
vanilla ice cream or fresh whipping cream.
