Ingredients

• 150 grams All-purpose flour
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 3 tablespoons Cold water
• 60 grams Unsalted butter
• 0 Cooking spray
• 200 grams Apples, diced
• 100 grams Blueberries
• 100 grams Strawberries, diced
• 3 tablespoons Honey
• 2 teaspoons Cornstarch
• 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

In a bowl, mix the all-purpose flour and salt. Cut the unsalted butter into small cubes and add to the flour mixture.

Step 3

Using a fork or pastry cutter, blend the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

Add the cold water one tablespoon at a time, mixing gently with a fork until the dough begins to come together.

Step 5

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently just enough to bring it all together. Do not overwork the dough.

Step 6

Roll out the dough to a 1/8-inch thickness. Using a round cookie cutter (about 3 inches in diameter), cut out 12 circles. Re-roll scraps if necessary.

Step 7

Spray a mini muffin tin with cooking spray and gently press each dough circle into the bottom and up the sides of the muffin cup.

Step 8

In a mixing bowl, combine the diced apples, blueberries, and strawberries.

Step 9

Add the honey, cornstarch, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon to the fruit mixture and stir until well combined.

Step 10

Spoon the fruit mixture evenly into each dough-lined muffin cup.

Step 11

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the crust is lightly golden and the fruit filling is bubbling.

Step 12

Allow to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before carefully removing to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 13

Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your delicious and healthy mini fruit pies!
