MINI APPLE PIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Cut 4 6-inch rounds out of the pie crusts, and fit them into 4 5-inch mini pie dishes. Cut remaining pie crust into 1/8-inch strips, and set dough aside.
• In a bowl, mix the diced apple, tapioca, sugar, lemon juice, nutmeg, and cinnamon until thoroughly combined; allow the mixture to stand for 5 minutes to soften the tapioca. Stir the mixture again, and spoon into the pie shells. Use the strips of dough to weave a small lattice crust on top of each pie, and pinch the strips onto the bottom crust.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the pies are browned and the filling is thickened and bubbling, about 30 minutes. Cool before serving.

APPLE HAND PIES WITH PILLSBURY PIE CRUST

Steps:

• Prepare a large baking (cookie) sheet by lining it with parchment paper. Working with one roll of dough at a time on a lightly floured work surface, and working with one at a time, roll each pie crust out to make a rectangular shape, it doesn't need to be perfect. Trim the outside area of the rectangle to make the edges straight, then cut into six squares, approximately 4" each. Do the same for the second roll of dough.
• Smear the olive oil (or use baking spray) on the parchment lined baking sheet, then put six pie of the dough squares down, placing them several inches apart.
• Spoon 1 tablespoon plus one teaspoon of the apple butter in the center of each square, smoothing it out with the back of a spoon, but leaving 1/4 space around the edges of each pie. In a small bowl, whisk together the egg, salt and water, then brush the outside edges of the dough with the egg mixture (which will act as a glue for the top piece of dough) then top with another dough square and press the edges together with your fingers or the back of a spoon or fork lightly to seal the two pieces of dough together to make six pies. Refrigerate for 30 minutes before baking.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. After removing from the refrigerator, brush the tops of each pie with a little bit of the egg wash, then make a small cut in the middle of the pie so steam can escape. Using the two tablespoons of sugar, sprinkle a teaspoon of sugar on the top of each pie, then bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on a wire rack.
• Make the glaze by combining the powdered sugar, maple syrup, salt, milk and apple butter in a small bowl. When the pies are completely cooled, drizzle the glaze over the top and sprinkle with a few sliced almonds for serving.
