Description

These Mini Dutch Apple Pies are everything you love about classic apple pie—but in fun, bite-sized portions! Each one has a flaky crust, a cinnamon-spiced apple filling, and a buttery brown sugar streusel on top. Perfect for parties, holidays, or when you just want a little something sweet!


Ingredients

For the Crust:

  • 1 box refrigerated pie crusts (2 crusts total), softened to room temp

  • Nonstick cooking spray

For the Apple Filling:

  • 3 medium apples (like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp), peeled and finely diced

  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar

  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar

  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon

  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice

  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour

For the Dutch Crumb Topping:

  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour

  • 1/3 cup brown sugar

  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

  • 3 tablespoons cold butter, cubed


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Spray a standard muffin tin with nonstick spray.

  2. Cut out crusts: Roll out the pie dough and use a round cutter (about 3.5–4 inches wide) to cut circles. Gently press each one into a muffin cup, forming a little crust “cup.” Re-roll scraps to get 12 rounds total.

  3. Make the filling: In a bowl, mix diced apples with sugars, cinnamon, lemon juice, and flour. Spoon evenly into each crust-lined muffin cup.

  4. Make the topping: In another bowl, mix flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Cut in cold butter with a fork or pastry cutter until crumbly. Sprinkle the topping over each mini pie.

  5. Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until crust is golden and filling is bubbly.

  6. Cool in the pan for 10–15 minutes, then gently remove and let cool completely on a wire rack.

  7. Serve as is or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream!


Notes

  • You can use store-bought apple pie filling in a pinch—just chop it up for easier scooping.

  • Make them ahead of time and warm them in the oven before serving.

  • Great for gifting or bringing to potlucks!
