THE RECIPE

Mini apple pies with blueberry & lime

Small, handheld pies packed with filling—perfect for coffee breaks or picnics. Blueberries turn the filling deep purple while lime keeps it lively.

Method

1. 1
   Prepare the filling

   Dice the apples finely and toss with the sugar, starch and flavouring: 150 g blueberries, finely grated lime zest and ½ tbsp extra starch.

2. 2
   Cut the bases

   Roll the dough thinly. Cut 12 large rounds and press them into a greased muffin tin.

3. 3
   Fill

   Divide the filling and a small dot of butter among the cups. Leave a few millimetres below the rim.

4. 4
   Add the tops

   Cut strips or smaller lids from the remaining dough. Attach with water and brush with egg.

5. 5
   Bake

   Bake until golden. Let the pies stand in the tin for 10 minutes before lifting them out.
