Description

These Mini Dutch Apple Pies are the perfect handheld treat with a buttery crust, spiced apple filling, and a sweet crumbly streusel topping. They’re easy to make, fun to serve, and taste just like a classic Dutch apple pie—only smaller!


Ingredients

For the crust:

  • 1 box refrigerated pie crusts (2 crusts total), softened as directed on box

For the filling:

  • 3 cups peeled, diced apples (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp work best)

  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar

  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar

  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour

  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

For the streusel topping:

  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour

  • 1/3 cup brown sugar

  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • 1/4 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into cubes


Instructions

  • oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a muffin tin with non-stick spray.

  • Cut crusts into 4-inch circles using a cookie cutter or glass. Press each circle into the muffin tin cups to form mini pie crusts.

  • Make the filling: In a bowl, combine diced apples, sugars, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice. Mix until apples are evenly coated.

  • Spoon the filling evenly into each pie crust, filling almost to the top.

  • Make the streusel: In a separate bowl, mix flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Add cold butter and cut in with a pastry cutter or fork until the mixture is crumbly.

  • Sprinkle streusel topping generously over the apple filling.

  • Bake for 25–30 minutes or until the crust is golden and the filling is bubbly.

 

  • Cool in the pan for 10 minutes before removing. Serve warm or at room temperature.


Notes

  • These freeze well! Just reheat in the oven for a few minutes before serving.

  • Top with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for extra indulgence.

  • Use a mix of apples for more flavor depth.
