Ingredients
- 2 tubes of crescent roll dough
- 1 can Apple pie filling or Homemade Apple pie filling
- For Homemade Apple Filling :
- 2 apples (small, peel and chop)
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 Tbsp cornstarch
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp nutmeg
- 1 cup water
- pinch of sea salt
- 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/3 cup of sugar
- 3 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tbsp of water
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly spray mini muffin pans with baking spray or use silicone muffin pan. Lightly dust a work surface with flour.
- Working with half of the dough at time, roll your crescent roll dough out onto a large cutting work surface.
- Using a knife or a pizza slicer , cut the dough into 6 roughly even squares, don’t worry if they’re not perfect…mine certainly didn’t, but in the end turned out just fine.
- Place each of the dough squares into a mini muffin pan as shown on the picture above. Fill each cup well all the way to the top with apple pie mixture and set aside while preparing the streusel.
- Combine - 1/3 cup of sugar, 1/3 cup of flour, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, 1/2 tablespoon of water and 3 tablespoons of softened butter. Use a fork to mix the butter into the mixture until it becomes crumbly.
- Now you sprinkle some over the apple pie filling in each cup. Bake Bites for 20 minutes, until tops are golden and a toothpick comes out clean.
- Leave the bites in the pan for 10 to 15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to continue cooling.
- The bites can be stored in an airtight container for up to three days.
- The Apple pie filling can be made in advance and held in the refrigerator for up to 2 days, or frozen for 2 weeks (thaw overnight in the fridge before using.)
