I experimented and made Mini Apple Crisp Pies.
I love apple crisp, while the rest of my family prefers apple pie. So, I decided to combine the two. The following recipe makes nine mini-pies right in a muffin tin.
Ingredients:
- 1 Refrigerated pie crust (or make your own)
- 1 20 oz. Can of apple pie filling
- 4 Tbsp. Butter or margarine, divided
- 1 Tsp. Cinnamon, divided
- 1/4 C. Flour
- 1/4 C. Brown sugar
- 1/2 C. Quick-cooking oats
- 1 Tbsp. Granulated sugar
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees
- Using a large glass or round Pampered Chef Sandwich Cutter, cut pie crust into rounds. I got seven out of it, and then rolled it again between two pieces of wax paper to get two more out of it.
- Place each round into a standard muffin tin and bake for 10 minutes.
- Melt 2 Tbsp. butter and brush onto each pie crust once removed from the oven. I used my brush to push the dough back down since some of them puffed up.
- Sprinkle each round with cinnamon and granulated sugar.
- Divide the can of apple pie filling among each of the nine pie crusts.
- Prepare crumb topping and divide among each of the nine pies.
- To prepare crumb topping:
- Mix flour, brown sugar, oats, and cinnamon in a bowl.
- Melt 2 Tbsp. butter and pour over top of mixture.
- Mix together with a fork until crumbly.
