I thought that keeping the pies open would decrease the amount of calories, be cheaper, and be cute, so I tried it out and it was a huge success.

Adjust the amount of sugar depending on the apple.

If you fill the crusts with too many apples pieces, the edges won't rise, so only use a moderate amount and make sure to leave the edges free. Recipe by Burauni-0529

Ingredients

1 serving
  1. 1sheet Frozen pie crust
  2. Filling:
  3. 1◎Small apple
  4. 2 tbsp◎Sugar
  5. 10 grams◎Butter
  6. 1 dash◎Lemon juice
  7. Glaze:
  8. 1Egg yolk

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Thaw the frozen pie crust at room temperature. Preheat the oven to 210°C.

  2. 2

    Cut the small apple into 8 wedges. Cut 3 of the wedges into small pieces about 5 mm on each side. Cut the remaining wedges into pieces about 2 cm on each side. The sizes of these cuts are only guidelines, so slice your apples up however you'd like.

  3. 3

    Place the ◎ ingredients into a pot and turn the heat to low. The apples will release their juices, so cook them only with that. Cook on low heat until the liquid evaporates.

  4. 4

    Divide the pie sheet into 8 pieces. Spread the edges of the crust with egg yolk. You can also optionally sprinkle granulated sugar onto the areas with egg yolk.

  5. 5

    Place the apples on the pie crusts for the filling. Make sure you balance the amount of large and finely cut pieces.

  6. 6

    Bake for 8-9 minutes at 210°C and then lower the temperature to 180°C and bake for another 8-9 minutes. You could also bake at 200°C for 15 minutes.

  7. 7

    The edges are flaky. These pie bites look cute too!

  8. 8

    Some people make this with the apple peels on, so I tried it too! The faint pink color of the peel looks cute.

  9. 9

    Step 4: If the pie crust doesn't come with holes, poke some holes into the crust with a fork.
