Mini Apple Pies | Ramadan Snack Recipes

Assalam 'o' Alaykum everyone!

My dad bought a lot of apples and there were too many that we couldn't eat them all. So I had two options: I could either make a jam out of them or bake apple pies. My sister loves my pastries so it was decided.  You can either bake them or use an air fryer.

INGREDIENTS:
  • 4 medium size apples, finely diced
  • 50g butter
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tsp cinnamon powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • 3 tbsp sugar
  • 6 tbsp cold ice water
  • 150g frozen butter

DIRECTIONS:
 
In a large pan add 50g butter, apple, sugar, cinnamon and salt.

Mix well and stir fry for on medium heat for 20-25 minutes or until the apples are soft and reduced in size. Stir occasionally.

In a large food processor add flour, butter, sugar and process well until it tuns into crumbs. Add ice water and blend until you obtain a dough like consistency.

 Refrigerate dough for 1 hour.

Cut dough in half. Working on the first half dough, roll the dough flat with a rolling pin. Make sure it's not too thick nor too thin. Half inch thick flat dough is what you want. Use a circular stamp to create mini circles and then use a small heart-shaped stamp (or any other shape you like). These will be the top part of the mini pies.

Roll the second half dough flat and use circular stamps to make the base of the circle mini pies. Place a table spoon of caramelized apple filling on the base of the mini pies.

  Cover each base with the heart-shaped top part.

 Seal the edges of the mini pies with a fork. This is also a great and easy way to decor your pies.

Egg wash the pies and sprinkle with some brown sugar.

Airfry apple pies for 30 minutes or until golden brown. Enjoy warm. I have a shared a short video on Instagram to help you understand the steps more!
