BM #106 Week 3 Day 1 -
This Week, I shall post some baked dishes which are kid friendly. Today's post was baked by my kids. On a lazy and cold weekend, my kids convinced me that they would bake mini apple pies without needing my help.
I was so happy that the kids were able to bake these mini delights and also served them with ice cream.
My older one found this recipe in her social media feed and luckily stored it and she referred to it and halved the recipe.
The kids had fun making the lattice, each one with a unique design. I was told that they left some without any lattice as they ran out of dough.

Ingredients -
For the Crust -
All Purpose Flour/Maida 1 cup
Butter (Chilled) 1/3 cup
Salt 1 tsp
Water 2 Tbsp
Filling -
Apples, peeled,cored and chopped 2-3 (I used Fuji Apples)
Brown Sugar 6 Tbsp
Cinnamon Powder 1 tsp
All Purpose Flour 3 Tbsp
Butter (Chilled) 1 Tbsp
Method Of Preparation -
Preheat the oven to 425 °F.
To make the filling -
In a mixing bowl, add all the ingredients except butter for the filling and mix well.
To make the mini pies -
In a mixing bowl, add flour, butter, salt and mix it until the flour looks like bread crumbs.
Sprinkle water and knead into a stiff dough.
Roll out the dough 1/4 inch thick on lightly floured surface.
Using a wine glass (3 inch cookie cutter will work fine), cut circles. Roll out the dough as many times as needed. We got 24 discs. Leave the rest of the dough for the lattice.
Press each disc into a mini muffin pan, so they make a cup.
Spoon the filling into each of the muffin cups lined with the crust.
Decorate the pies with any kind of lattice using the leftover dough or just leave it open.
Bake it for about 15-18 minutes.
Remove and loosen with a spoon and enjoy with a dollop of ice cream.
Preparation Time 45 minutes
Makes 24 mini pies

Your girls did a wonderful job baking and presenting the mini pies. Mini pies are great when controlling portion size.
