Ingredients

1boxpie crust,(2 crusts total), ready to use

1canapple pie filling,or homemade apple pie filling

1egg white

2tbsplarge sugar crystals,or regular sugar, optional

whipped cream,for serving, optional

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.

Remove pie crusts and let sit 15 minutes per box instructions. Lay out parchment paper and unroll pie crusts. Using a 2¾ circle cutter, cut circles out of one of the crusts.

Cut strips (approx ¼″) out of the second pie crust.

Open the can of pie filling and pour it onto a cutting board. Dice the apples into small chunks.

Place 1 heaping tablespoon of pie filling on each circle. Weave the strips of pastry on top of each circle to create a lattice.

Once the lattice is completed, use the same cookie cutter to trim the stray bits of pastry. Brush each cookie crust with egg white and sprinkle with sugar.

Place on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper and bake 12 to 16 minutes or until browned.
