Ingredients
- 3 Pie Dough store-bought
- 3 Green Granny Smith Apples
- 2 Macintosh Apples
- 1/2 Lemon

Instructions

- It’s time to make our round disc/circles. You can do this by taking a cup from your cabinet and pressing into the dough to form the shape and trim out with a paring knife or use a round biscuit cutter.
- Spray the muffin pan with non-stick cooking spray all over.
- Add 1 round disc into each muffin pan and press down around sides.
- Take 3 tablespoons of the apple mixture and add into each muffin pan so the apple mixture is right over the top of the pan.
- Take ½ of a tab of butter, break it up add to each muffin pan.
- Add a top disc of pie dough and pinch together at the seam with bottom dough.
- Brush the egg wash over the top of your mini pie and make 3 slits in the top of dough.
- Sprinkle with sugar and put in the oven for 35 min until filling bubbles and top of dough is golden brown.
- Let cool for 30 min before you attempt to take out of the muffin pan or it will break. Use a small kitchen spoon to scoop out mini pie, sprinkle with confectioners sugar (optional).
