Tutorial-Homemade Mini Apple Pies

Hello loves,
This past weekend I made some cute little apple pies for a Halloween party. These mini pies are easy to make and taste amazing.

I like the idea of everyone having their own little individual pie.

This recipe makes around 20-25 little individual pie.

Recipe: 

• 12 Tablespoons of flour
• 1 1/2 cup of Sugar
• 4 heaping spoons of Cinnamon
• 8 medium/larger apples
• 2 boxes of pie crust
• 4 table spoons of unsalted chilled butter
• Unstick Spray
• Set oven 400 degrees and bake for 18-20 minutes

Step 1: The first thing I did was cut out the pie crusts for the cupcake/muffin tin. Some might need an exact measured circle. I used a red solo cup and flipped it upside down. It seemed to work perfect for my size pan. 

Tip: I pulled the pre-made pie crust out of the fridge and started to try and unroll it. Of course it cracked. So I just pressed into a ball and rolled out again. If I remake these, I would allow the pie crust to come to room temp. in order to save a little time. 

Also, before adding the pie crust to the tin, SPRAY THE CRAP out of the pan with non-stick spray. I just used a butter generic nonstick. I didn't want to make these and them not pop out when done. 

Step 2: I peeled the apples, and diced them up. I then added the flour, sugar, and cinnamon. Mix around. 

Tip: Dice the apples fairly small, the bigger the chunks, the less amount of pieces you can put in the pie crust. 

Step 3: Fill your little pie crusts to the top with the apple mixture, and then top with a few little pieces of the chilled butter.

Tip: When I first got all my stuff out to start making the pies, I just threw a stick of butter into the freezer, then it was pretty chilled by the time I was ready to use.

Step 4: This is totally optional. I just created little lattices for atop the pie's. I have seen other recipes where they just cut out a leaf shape. I then melted a little butter and brushed the tops. Then bake for 18-20 minutes until golden brown.

Below is the final product. These babies are just enough to get the sweet craving to stop, without eating an entire slice of pie. 

If you try them, please let me know how they turned out! I would love to read the comments and see pictures.

Also, if you want a video tutorial, please just let me know and I would be happy to make one.

Until next time, loves!
