Place about a tablespoon of the apple pie filling into the center of each circle. Then, arrange two parallel strips of pastry on top of each circle. Lay two more strips perpendicular to the first two to produce a lattice.
Trim away any excess pastry from the strips and seal the edges with a fork. Finally, whisk an egg and brush the pies with the egg wash. Bake them for 20 to 25 minutes or until they are golden brown.
This recipe is versatile since the apples can be replaced with a fruit of your choice, such as peaches. In the comments section, several TikTok users shared the unique spins they put on the recipe.
“Oh, fun! I used to make mini apple pies in a muffin tin, and they were amazing!” exclaimed one user.
“Add a bit of turbinado sugar to the top after the egg wash for a bit of razzle-dazzle,” commented another.
“Made these just now! So good and a perfect serving for someone like me who doesn’t like sweets much!! We drizzled caramel syrup over it, too,” added a third.
