Ingredients

• 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 cup Coconut oil
• 6 tablespoons Cold water
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 4 large Granny Smith apples
• 0.5 cup Sugar
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. Add the solid coconut oil, using a fork or pastry cutter to blend until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 3

Slowly add the cold water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough just holds together.

Step 4

Form the dough into a ball, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.

Step 5

While the dough chills, peel, core, and chop the apples into small cubes.

Step 6

In a medium bowl, combine the chopped apples with sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice, cornstarch, and vanilla extract. Mix well to combine and set aside.

Step 7

Roll out the chilled dough on a lightly floured surface to about 1/8 inch thick.

Step 8

Using a round cutter, cut out 12 circles large enough to line the bottoms and sides of a muffin tin.

Step 9

Gently press each circle into the muffin tin molds. Re-roll any remaining dough and cut smaller circles to form the pie tops.

Step 10

Fill each pie shell with the apple mixture, being careful not to overfill.

Step 11

Place the smaller dough circles on top of each pie, gently pressing the edges to seal. Cut small slits or a decorative pattern into the tops for ventilation.

Step 12

Bake in the preheated oven for about 25 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.

Step 13

Allow the mini pies to cool slightly in the tin before removing them. Serve warm or at room temperature.
