Ingredients

Filling

  • 2 granny smith apples diced small
  • 3/4 cup light brown sugar
  • 1/2 tbsp cinnamon powder
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp all purpose flour

Other

  • 1 tbsp raw sugar
  • 2 tsp almond milk
  • 2 ready made pie crust 14 oz

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Add your butter to a small pot on medium heat.  Once melted, throw in all of your filling ingredients. 
  • Let the apples cook until fork tender, ~5-7 minutes on low heat. Set aside and let it cool.
  • Cut 3 inch circles out of the pie crust.  When there is no more space left to cut, knead the dough and use a rolling pin to get it thin enough to cut more circles.  Each pie crust should yield about 12 mini circles.
  • Add about 1-1.5 tsp of the apples into the center of each circle.  Fold in half and seal the sides with a fork.
  • Brush the top of each pie with almond milk.  Coat with a generous amount of cane sugar.
  • Bake on a tray with wax paper for 20-25 minutes, until the top is golden brown.
  • Let them cool for 10 minutes before serving!
