Yield Serves 8 to 10

Number Of Ingredients 16

For filling
12 ounces dried apples (preferably Granny Smith)
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
4 cups water
2 cups apple cider
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
four 3-inch cinnamon sticks
For topping
3/4 stick (6 tablespoons) cold unsalted butter
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup granulated sugar
For pastry dough
1 1/4 sticks (10 tablespoons) cold unsalted butter
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
Accompaniment: whipped cream or vanilla ice cream

Steps:

  • Make filling:
  • In a heavy 5-quart kettle simmer filling ingredients with a pinch salt, covered, until apples are fully plumped, about 15 minutes. Uncover mixture and simmer, stirring occasionally, until thick and any excess liquid is evaporated or absorbed, about 1 hour. (Reduce heat as liquid is evaporated or absorbed and stir mixture frequently toward end of cooking to prevent scorching.) Discard cinnamon sticks. Filling may be made 2 days ahead and cooled before being chilled, covered.
  • Make topping:
  • Cut butter into 1/2-inch pieces. In a food processor pulse butter, flour, and granulated sugar until crumbly. Transfer topping to a bowl and chill, covered, until ready to use.
  • Make pastry dough when filling and topping are done:
  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • Cut butter into 1/2-inch pieces. In cleaned food processor pulse together pastry dough ingredients and a pinch salt until mixture begins to gather together.
  • Press dough evenly onto bottom and up side of an 11-inch tart pan with a removable fluted rim. Line shell with foil and bake in middle of oven until shell is set, about 12 minutes. Gently remove foil (if foil sticks to shell, leave foil on and bake about 2 minutes more) and bake shell until edge is golden, about 5 minutes (tart shell will not be completely cooked).
  • Immediately spoon filling into shell and crumble topping evenly over filling. Bake tart in middle of oven 30 minutes, or until topping is golden. Cool tart in pan on a rack. Tart may be made 1 day ahead and kept, covered and chilled, in pan. Reheat tart, uncovered, if desired or bring to room temperature before serving. Remove side of pan.
  • Serve tart with whipped cream or ice cream.

TINY APPLE PIES WITH CRUMBLE TOPPING



Tiny Apple Pies With Crumble Topping image

I love to serve finger foods at parties and get-togethers, and I wanted to do some tiny pies, but all I could find were recipes for regular muffin sized "mini" apple pies. So here's what I came up with for tiny bite-sized apple pies! I have successfully made these gluten free by checking ingredients and using a gluten free flour blend. Prep time includes 1 hour chill time for dough.

Provided by Starrynews

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h40m

Yield 24 tiny pies

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup butter, softened
3 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 cup flour
2 apples, finely chopped and core discarded
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 dash nutmeg
1/4 cup flour
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 dash nutmeg
2 tablespoons butter, chilled

Steps:

  • Cream butter and cream cheese together. Once well combined, add flour and work into dough by hand or by mixer. Chill dough for about one hour.
  • Meanwhile, make the filling by combining the apples, sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Allow the apple mixture to sit and flavors to meld.
  • Combine flour, brown sugar, and nutmeg into a small bowl, stirring well. Cut in butter until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  • When dough is ready, preheat oven to 400°F.
  • Divide dough into 24 small balls and press into the bottom and up the sides of the cups in a miniature muffin pan.
  • Fill each crust with apple filling - this should rise a little above each cup, as the apples will settle a bit during baking. If you have extra juice in the bottom of the bowl when you've used up the apples, divide that up throughout the cups too.
  • Top each pie with crumble topping.
  • Bake for 18-20 minutes. Filling will be bubbly and top a light golden brown when ready.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of apples. This will give your crumble a more complex flavor and texture. Some good options include Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn apples.
  • Peel and slice the apples thinly. This will help them to cook evenly.
  • Don't overmix the crumble topping. You want it to be crumbly, not doughy.
  • Bake the crumble until the topping is golden brown and the apples are bubbling. This usually takes about 30 minutes.
  • Let the crumble cool for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together.

Conclusion:

Apple crumble is a classic dessert that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With its sweet and tart apples, crunchy crumble topping, and warm spices, it's the perfect comfort food for a cold night. So next time you're looking for a delicious and easy dessert, give apple crumble a try.
