Cinnamon Ginger Mini Apple Pies

First, you will need some cupcake sized pie crusts. I just use the muffin tin and put my pie crust molded inside, cook, remove and cool and freeze for when I need a quick, fancy dessert.

Serves 4 – Double as needed.

Ingredients:

4 medium crisp apples, peeled and diced small (I used Fuji)
2-3 T white sugar as desired
1 t cinnamon
½ t ginger powder
2 t vanilla extract
Dash of kosher salt
1/3 cup water
4 T butter
Bottled caramel sauce
Whipped cream

Direction:

• In a medium saucepan, cook all above ingredients on medium, stirring often, until apples are soft. About 10-15 minutes. Ladle the apples evenly into 4 of the small pre-cooked pie crusts. Drizzle with caramel syrup. Personally, I like a little apple pie with my caramel, but the ratios are up to you! Yum!
• Serve with whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon.
