If you\u2019ve been in the mood for a crispy, flaky treat you\u2019re in luck \u2013 we\u2019ve taken this delicious pie and turned it into your new favorite bite sized treat! There are a few different ways to approach this and it may depend on your level of expertise. I personally suck at making pie crust so I take the easy way out by buying the premade refrigerated ones. If making your own crust is your own personal super power, I say go for it! It\u2019s just a battle I can\u2019t win. The filling is easy for even the earliest of beginners, but you can also buy premade fillings to save time \u2013 I just love using fresh apples! If you\u2019re in Connecticut, Lost Acres Orchard in North Granby<\/a><\/span><\/strong>, Scott\u2019s Orchards in Glastonbury<\/a><\/span><\/strong>, Lyman Orchards in Middlefield<\/a><\/span><\/strong> and Rose Orchards in Branford<\/a><\/span><\/strong> are a few favorites to get the freshest apples!<\/p>\n You\u2019ll need about 2-2 & \u00bd cups of sliced or diced apples (about 1 pound or 3 medium apples)<\/p>\n 1 tablespoon lemon juice<\/p>\n 1 \u00bd cups of water<\/p>\n \u00be cups granulated sugar<\/p>\n 8 teaspoons of cornstarch<\/p>\n 1 teaspoon cinnamon<\/p>\n \u00bc teaspoon salt<\/p>\n \u00bc teaspoon nutmeg<\/p>\n You have the freedom to adjust each ingredient as everyone\u2019s preferences are different, that\u2019s what fun about making things from scratch \u2013 you have total control over what you\u2019re making and the taste you\u2019ll yield!<\/p>\n Preheat your oven to 425 degrees<\/p>\n Unroll the pie crust, and using a 3-4 inch cookie cutter cut 6-8 circles of crust. Roll out scraps of dough and cut and additional circles you can.<\/p>\n Place your apples in a large bowl and toss with lemon juice.<\/p>\n Place water, sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, salt and nutmeg in a medium sauce pan. Stir to combine then bring to a boil over medium heat stirring often. Once the mix comes to a boil, let it boil for 2 minutes. Let cool and allow the mixture to thicken.<\/p>\n Once cooled, place your apple filling in each circle. This can be a spoonful if you diced your apples or about 1-2 slices.<\/p>\n Fold the crust in half and pinch around the edges to close.<\/p>\n Sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar and bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown and flaky.<\/p>\n Once cooled, melt butter and whisk with powdered sugar, vanilla and half a tablespoon milk to make a loose drizzle to add on top.<\/p>\n But before you enjoy \u2013 grab a bottle of Chenin Blanc! The wine\u2019s bubbling crispness and high acidity helps offset the pie\u2019s rich and buttery crust. Now you\u2019re ready to kick back and enjoy your well earned treat!<\/p>\n Apple Pie Bites Recipe + Wine Pairing If you\u2019ve been in the mood for a crispy, flaky treat you\u2019re in luck \u2013 we\u2019ve taken this delicious pie and turned it into your new favorite bite sized treat!
