Apple Pie Apples


  • Author: Autumn Rose Reo

Description

What’s the best part of apple pie? It’s the apple! So we make this treat quick and easy with apples as the real feature, but a little bit of crust for the crunch!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 56 big apples (these won’t come in a bag, you’ll need to hand pick these)
  • 1 teaspoon of MamaChallenge.com’s Apple Pie Spice
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon butter, melted
  • Premade pie crust (either they kind you can roll out or the double plates you can pull out and roll)

Instructions

  1. Cut the top of the apple. Using a melon baller, remove the inside of each apple carefully to not tear into the skin (you’ll create your own rind.)
  2. From your apple pieces, remove the seeds and discard.
  3. Take remaining apple pieces and combine with sugars and apple pie spice.
  4. Now add the apple filling back to each apple evenly.
  5. Roll out pie crust and slice into 1/4 strips to create your own pie crust lattice.
  6. Cover the top of the apple with the lattice pattern with strips.
  7. Brush crust with a little butter.
  8. Places apples in small square pan with just water to cover the bottom of the pan (very small amount.)
  9. Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes until brown.)
  10. Remove foil and bake for 10-15 minutes until brown.

Notes

  • The hardest part of this pie is taking the apple out of the apple skin without making a whole! Take your time and you’ll have a perfect treat you’ll be proud to serve!
