Description

These little pies virtually melt in your mouth!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 c. melted butter
  • 1/2 c. white sugar
  • 1/2 c. brown sugar
  • 2 Tbsp quick cooking tapioca
  • 1/2 c. apple sauce
  • 8 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, cut in to 1/2″ dice
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp apple pie spice
  • 2 recipes Foolproof Pie Crust for double crust pie or 4 frozen pie crust sheets (enough for 2 double crust pies)
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Combine melted butter, white sugar, brown sugar, tapioca, apple sauce, apple cubes, cinnamon and apple pie spice. Cook over medium heat to desired tenderness.
  3. Roll out pie crust and cut a circle for each turnover (I use a 6″ circle). Place 2-3 Tbsp of filling on one half of each circle staying away from the edges. Brush egg around the edges, and crimp to seal. Poke a couple hole in the top to vent. Brush tops with beaten egg and sprinkle with coarse sugar if desired.
  4. Bake for approx 25-35 minutes or until crust is golden brown. Serve warm!
