Cooking Instructions

30 minutes
  1. 1

    Set oven to 425F.

  2. 2

    Peel and cut apples to desired size.

    *I cut the apples into 1/4s, and then cut out the core. Then cut the 1/4s in half, and the halves into 1/3s.

  3. 3

    Sauté the apples in the 1 oz of butter until slightly softened.

  4. 4

    Add the 3 oz of sugar, and allow to simmer until about a 1/4" of the apple pieces are translucent.

  5. 5

    Once simmering, add the salt, nutmeg, cinnamon, and lemon juice.

  6. 6

    Mix together the cold water and cornstarch, and add this slurry to the apples once cooked to preference.

  7. 7

    Remove from heat, and add the 3.5 oz sugar and 0.25 oz butter. Stir until dissolved.

    **If the pie filling is still a little too thick, add small increments of butter until desired consistency.

  8. 8

    Allow to cool before filling your pie crust.

  9. 9

    Bake 8-9” pie for about 30-40 minutes.

    *** Tip: wrap edges of crust in aluminum foil to avoid burning. Remove last 15 minutes of baking.

  10. 10

    Alternatively, bake regular muffin tin sized mini pies for 15-20 minutes. 3 and 3/4” diameter circles are perfect crusts, with about 1.5oz filling.
