Ingrédients
Multiplier les quantités
- For the Crust
- 2 pie crusts (store-bought or homemade)
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted (for brushing)
- For the Apple Filling
- 3 cups finely chopped apples (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp work best)
- 3 tbsp brown sugar
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- ⅛ tsp nutmeg
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
- Optional Topping
- Coarse sugar or cinnamon sugar mix for sprinkling
Préparation
- Prep the Crusts: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin. Roll out your pie crusts and cut 4-inch circles using a biscuit cutter or drinking glass. Press each round into the muffin tin cups, leaving a little overhang.
- Make the Filling: In a medium bowl, combine chopped apples, sugars, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice, vanilla, and salt. Toss until evenly coated and glossy.
- Fill the Crusts: Spoon about 2 tbsp of filling into each crust. Dot with a small cube of butter if desired for extra richness.
- Add Lattice or Top Crust: Cut remaining dough into thin strips and weave a simple lattice, or cover each pie with a smaller dough circle and cut slits for venting. Brush tops with melted butter and sprinkle with coarse sugar.
- Bake: Bake for 22–25 minutes, until crusts are golden and filling is bubbling. Cool for 10 minutes in the pan before transferring to a rack.
Notes
For an extra shine, brush baked pies with a little warmed apricot jam. These mini pies can be made ahead — reheat in the oven before serving for a fresh-baked taste!
