Mini apple pies with salted caramel

THE RECIPE

Mini apple pies with salted caramel

Small, handheld pies packed with filling—perfect for coffee breaks or picnics. Amber caramel and flaky salt create a richer, more luxurious apple pie.

Method

1. 1
   Prepare the filling

   Dice the apples finely and toss with the sugar, starch and flavouring: 75 g caramel sauce and ½ tsp flaky sea salt; drizzle the caramel between the apple layers.

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.
