Apple Pie
You can make mini apple pies that are less messy to eat and easy to bring anywhere. You can even make this delicious apple pie into bite sizes, depending on the size of the dough you cut.
Ingredients
Pie Crust:
- 3 cups of flour
- ¼ tsp salt
- 3 tbsp sugar
- ½ cup shortening
- 2 eggs 1 for the dough and 1 for sealing the dough
- 1 cup of milk
Pie Filling:
- 2 tbsp butter
- 4 apples sliced and peeled
- ½ cup sugar
- ½ tsp cinnamon powder
- 1 tsp lemon
Instructions
- In a small bowl, crack an egg and beat the egg. Set aside the egg as you will use this for the pie sealing.
- In a pan, add the butter, sliced apples, sugar, cinnamon powder, and lemon juice
- Cook for 15 minutes and set aside. This will be the pie filling.
- Mix all the dry ingredients (flour, salt, and sugar) in a bowl.
- Add the wet ingredients, a cup of milk, 1 egg, and the shortening.
- Mix until fully incorporated. Pour the dough onto a flat surface and knead the dough for three to five minutes
- Using a rolling pin, roll out the dough and cut it into thin square slices. Make sure the slices are an even number and set aside half.
- For the other half, add the apple pie filling for each dough slice.
- Place another slice of dough over the dough with the pie filling.
- Seal the dough by brushing the egg (that was set aside earlier) along the edges and pressing down with a fork to seal them.
- Fry the sealed dough until golden brown.
- Once cooked, let it cool and enjoy your apple pies.
