Instructions Prepare the Dough: In a large bowl, mix the flour, salt, and sugar. Add the cold butter cubes to the flour mixture and use a pastry cutter or your hands to mix until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Make the Filling: In a medium saucepan, combine the diced apples, sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
– Cook over medium heat until the apples begin to soften, about 10 minutes. – Dissolve the cornstarch in the water and add it to the apple mixture. Cook until the filling thickens, about 2-3 minutes.
Assemble the Mini Pies: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a muffin tin or line with muffin liners.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
Allow the mini pies to cool in the muffin tin for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
