Fall is in the air & I am so happy about it! I absolutely love summer but there is something about the fall that just fires me up & gets me so excited!

Mini Apple Pies [Grain-Free, Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free Option]

I have already noticed the temperature starting to drop & it is making me want to snuggle on the couch with a good book, a warm sweater, & candle burning!

But we cannot forget about all the amazing fall treats (much needed when perched up & cozy on the couch with a good book) so I have got you covered. I have been recipe testing SO many yummy fall recipes & cannot wait to get them all up on the blog for you!

These little mini apple pies are not only cute & delicious but actually super easy to whip up & require a few ingredients! I am not going to waste any more time so let’s get into the recipe!

Apple Pie Filling
  • 1 apple, diced
  • 2 tbsp Maple Syrup or Golden Lakanto for a lower carb option
  • 1 tbsp Flax meal (ground flaxseeds)
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/8 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/8 tsp allspice
  • 1 + 1/2 tsp Cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp Vanilla extract
Egg Wash
  • 1 Egg
Instructions
Low-Carb Pie Crust
  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a muffin pan & set aside.
  2. In a mixing bowl add the cold butter (or coconut oil) diced into chunks with the almond & coconut flour. Mix with your fingers until a crumble is formed & everything incorporated.
  3. Add the egg & the vanilla & form into a dough.
  4. Depending on how much you want for the top of the pies your servings will vary. I did a few top-less, a few with full tops & a few with just few lines of crust & got 7 servings.
  5. Line your muffins pans with some of the pie crust, making sure to bring it up to the sides. Be sure to save some for the top if you desire.
  6. Bake for 5 minutes, remove from the oven & let cool slightly.
Apple Pie Filling
  1. In a mixing bowl add all of the ingredients together so they are well coated.
  2. Top into the baked pie crust & add the leftover crust to the top, if using. I rolled out some of the dough & sliced it into lines to pop on top of some.
  3. Bake for 5-7 minutes & remove for the egg wash. Beat the egg with a fork & carefully brush it over the pies. Place them back in the oven for another 10-15 minutes, until the apples are soft when pierced with a toothpick or fork. Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, then remove from the liner & serve warm with vanilla ice cream & maybe some sugar-free caramel sauce (linked above), enjoy!
