These Mini Bacon Apple Pies are the perfect combination of sweet and savory. The crispy bacon adds a smoky flavor that pairs wonderfully with the sweet, spiced apple filling. They make for a delightful snack or dessert that everyone will love.
Ingredients: 1 package refrigerated pie crusts 2 crusts. 4 slices of bacon, cooked and crumbled. 2 cups diced apples about 2 medium apples. 1/4 cup granulated sugar. 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon. 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg. 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour. 1 egg, beaten for egg wash.
Instructions: Preheat your oven to 375F 190C. Unroll the refrigerated pie crusts on a lightly floured surface. Using a 4-inch round cutter, cut out circles from the pie crusts. You should get about 8 circles from each crust. In a mixing bowl, combine the diced apples, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and flour. Mix well until the apples are evenly coated. Place a spoonful of the apple mixture onto the center of each pie crust circle. Sprinkle the crumbled bacon on top of the apple mixture on each circle. Fold each circle in half to create a half-moon shape, then use a fork to crimp the edges and seal the pies. Place the mini pies on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the tops of the pies with the beaten egg to give them a golden finish. Using a sharp knife, make a small slit on the top of each pie to allow steam to escape during baking. Bake in the preheated oven for about 18-20 minutes or until the mini pies are golden brown and the filling is bubbling. Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your delicious Mini Bacon Apple Pies!
