Ingredients:

– 2 cups apples (peeled, cored, and diced)

– 1 tablespoon lemon juice

– 1/4 cup sugar

– 1/4 cup brown sugar

– 1 teaspoon cinnamon

– 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

– 1/4 teaspoon salt

– 2 tablespoons cornstarch

– 1/4 cup water

– 1 package refrigerated pie crust (2 pieces)

– 1 egg, beaten for egg wash

– Coarse sugar for sprinkling

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

2. In a large bowl, combine the diced apples with lemon juice to prevent browning.

3. In a separate bowl, mix together the sugars (white and brown), cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and cornstarch.

4. Add the sugar mixture to the apples and mix well until all apples are evenly coated.

5. In a saucepan over medium heat, cook the apple mixture with the water for about 10 minutes or until apples have softened and the mixture has thickened. Remove from heat and allow it to cool slightly.

6. Roll out one of the pie crusts on a floured surface to a thickness of about 1/8 inch. Using a round cutter or a small bowl as a guide, cut out six circles with a diameter of about four inches each.

7. Place a spoonful of the apple mixture in the center of each dough circle. Be mindful not to overfill, as this could cause the pie to burst open during baking.

8. Roll the second pie crust and cut out six more circles of the same size. Place one on top of each filled dough circle and press down gently along the edges to seal.

9. Fold the edges to create a crimped look or use a fork to press and seal the edges together.

10. Brush each pie with the beaten egg wash, then sprinkle with coarse sugar.

11. Using a sharp knife, make three small slits on top of each pie to allow steam to escape while baking.

12. Bake your pies for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Allow them to cool slightly before serving.
