Mini Apple Pie
Personally, I don't really much into apples. But 'apple pie' is a different thing. Apples, cinamon, and lemon juice is just the perrrfect combination. Craving for apple pies, I decided to make it, but in mini size.
You may want to make apple pies with many different types of topping. Mine is the webbing on top of the pie. A little tedious. And somehow you're gonna ruin the whole pie while you're eating it. But honestly, the moment I enjoyed most while making this pie was creating the webbing. Haha.
Pie Dough
Just to make life easier, you may want to buy ready pie crust mix. But really, it's not that complicated to make the pie crust. You may create the dough in less than 10 minutes, using the food processor.
1 cups flour + some for rolling the dough
1 stick butter (chilled in freezer and diced)
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons water
Filling
1/3 sticks of butter for frying
4 medium apples (diced)
1/4 cup sugar
1/8 cup brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
Lemon juice, squeezed from 1 lemon
1 tablespoons cornstarch
1 egg beaten with 2 tablespoons water to make an egg wash (optional)
Melt 1/3 sticks butter in a large pan over medium heat. Add the apple wedges and saute for 3-4 minutes. Add the white sugar and brown sugar to the sauteing apples and stir until combines. Add the cinnamin and nutmeg, stir.
In a small cup, combine the lemon juice and cornstarch. Add the mixture to the sauteing apples. Stir and remove pan from the heat. Let cool completely.
Bake at 425 degrees for 15 minutes.
And.. you can snack your mini apple pie while watching the tv as I did!
