Serving Size 12 Mini Pies

Ingredients

  • 2 Pie crusts
  • 2/3 Cup Pumpkin Puree
  • 1/4 Cup Honey or Sugar
  • 1/2 tsp Vanilla
  • 1/4 tsp Fine Salt
  • 1 tsp Pumpkin Pie Spice
  • 1/3 Cup Milk
  • 1 Egg
  • 1 Pint Apple Pie Filling

Instructions

Prepare Your Crust

  • Roll out crust to just over ⅛ inch thickness
  • Cut out 12 circles for the bottom crusts
  • Cut out 6 circles for the apple pie lattices
  • Put bottom crusts into muffin tins and press edges with desired design
  • Cut strips to weave for the apple pie lattice

Prepare the Pumpkin Pies:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 °F
  • Mix pumpkin, honey, vanilla, salt, and pumpkin pie spice
  • Mix in the milk
  • Lightly beat in the egg
  • Pour into pie crusts about ¾ full

Prepare the Apple Pies:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 °F
  • Fill apple pies to ⅔ full to avoid filling bubbling up and burning
  • Put lattice on top of apple pies
  • Brush with egg wash or a sprinkle of sugar to get a golden brown finish

Bake pies for 20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out of the pumpkin pies cleanly.

    Notes

    • Keep pie crust cold throughout the entire process.
    • If you prepare the crusts ahead of the fillings, refrigerate until they are ready to be filled.
    • Carefully remove pies from muffin tins after 5 minutes of cooling to prevent them sticking.
    • Serve with homemade whipped cream.
