Itsy bitsy apple pies!

First let me say these were super easy to make and turned out awesome!!!! Secondly, I think I will try making them in regular size muffin tins next time. These mini size are fab, but for one bite I don't know if it's worth it. Hahaha! Still.....YUM! Found this on Pinterest and made them for the Pinterest Weekend Event on Facebook.

Ok so here you see the ingredients and supplies I used for mine. The original pinner made her pie filling from scratch, but I didn't have apples and I did have this filling, so this is what I used. I did, however, chop it up as it was whole slices and too big for the muffin tins. Click here to see the original recipe.

My recipe:
1 Pillsbury pie crust
1 can apple pie filling, chopped into bits (whole pieces won't fit into the mini muffin tins)
2 tablespoons butter, cut into 12 pieces
1 tablespoon butter, melted
Cinnamon and sugar
Biscuit cutter 
Mini cookie cutter
Mini muffin pan

Using biscuit cutter, cut 12 circles from the pie crust and place each into a muffin cup. Roll out the leftover dough and cut 12 shapes for the tops of your pies.


Fill each with pie filling and top with one of the butter pieces. Place a cookie shape on top. Once all are filled and covered, brush with melted butter and sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar. Bake in 375F oven 18-22 minutes.

And DONE!

I've put this on the Recipes page as well, so if you come back for it later, you can go directly to that page.
