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... Ingredients:
2 cups flour |
2/3 cup butter (chilled) |
1 teaspoon salt |
4 tablespoons water |
5 medium apples (peeled and chopped up into small pieces) |
3/4 cup sugar |
2 teaspoons cinnamon |
6 tablespoons flour |
2 tablespoons butter (chilled) |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Get muffin pan out. No need to grease it.
2. In food processor blend flour, salt and butter until it looks like little peas.
3. Add in water and blend just until it looks like it's sticking.
4. Take out and combine it by hand until well blended.
5. Roll out on lightly floured surface until about 1/4 inch thick.
6. Cut 12, 4 inch circles with cup or bowl.(You will need to roll out twice).
7. Note: you can use the rest of the crust for anything you may want to do on top of the pies.
8. Press each circle in muffin tins until all the way up each side, to form little bowls.
9. Mix by hand all filling ingredients and spoon into muffin bowls.
10. Cut up butter into 12 little pieces and place one piece on each pie.
11. You can decorate them anyway you like with extra crust, or just leave plain.
12. Bake at 425 degrees for 16-18 minutes. (Until crust is light brown and apples are bubbling).
13. When cool, just loosen with a spoon and they'll come right out!
