Makes: 8 pies!

Active Time: 20 minutes

Total Time: 42 minutes

From: Great American Home Baking

Ingredients

1 refrigerated pie pastry

2 medium granny-smith apples

2 tsp. lemon juice

1/4 cup packed brown sugar

1 tsp. cinnamon

1/4 tsp. ginger

1/8 tsp. nutmeg

2 tbsp. butter cut into 8 pieces

1 egg, lightly beaten

1-2 tbsp. granulated sugar

Step 1

Preheat oven 425. Set pastry out to warm slightly.

Step 2

Meanwhile, peal, core and dice the apples. Place in small bowl and toss with the lemon juice. Stir in brown sugar and spices.

Step 3

Roll the pastry dough into a 16x8 inch rectangle on a lightly floured surface. Cut into 8 4-inch squares.

Step 4

Spoon 2 scant tablespoons of apple mixture onto the center of each square of dough. Top filling of each pie with a piece of the butter. Brush the edges of the dough with some of the beaten egg. Fold the corners of the dough toward the middle covering the filling. Pinch the edges to seal. Place the filled squares on an ungreased baking sheet.

Step 5

Brush the top of the pies with the remainder of the beaten egg and sprinkle with the sugar. Bake until lightly browned, 10-12 minutes. Cool the pies on the baking sheet for 2 minutes. Serve warm or transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
