Ingredients
- 3 medium Granny Smith apples
- 2 cups Almond flour
- 0.5 cup Coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened applesauce
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 0.25 cup Chopped walnuts
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a muffin tin by greasing it lightly with coconut oil or lining it with paper liners.
Step 2
Peel, core, and finely dice the Granny Smith apples into small cubes. Place them in a mixing bowl.
Step 3
Add lemon juice to the apples and toss them well to prevent browning.
Step 4
In the same bowl, add ground cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla extract, unsweetened applesauce, and chopped walnuts. Mix until the apples are coated evenly.
Step 5
In a separate bowl, combine almond flour and salt. Mix in coconut oil gradually and blend them until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Step 6
Reserve about 1/4 cup of the crumb mixture for topping the pies later.
Step 7
Press the remaining crust mixture into the bottom and up the sides of the muffin cups to form mini pie shells.
Step 8
Spoon the apple filling evenly over each crust, filling them to the top.
Step 9
Sprinkle the reserved crumb mixture over each mini pie for a crumbly topping.
Step 10
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the apples are tender.
Step 11
Allow the mini apple pies to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before removing them from the muffin tin.
Step 12
Serve warm or store in an airtight container for up to three days.
