Mini apple pies

Ingredients (makes 12 mini pies)

2 medium apples (peeled, cored, finely chopped)

1 tsp lemon juice

1 tsp ground cinnamon

2 Tbsp brown sugar (or sugar substitute to lower points)

6 sheets reduced-fat phyllo dough (or use wonton wrappers for easier prep)

1 spray cooking spray

Optional: pinch of nutmeg or allspice

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Spray a mini muffin tin with cooking spray.

2. Prepare apples: In a small bowl, mix apples, lemon juice, cinnamon, sugar, and nutmeg.

3. Form crusts:

If using phyllo: cut sheets into 4″ squares, layer 2 squares per muffin cup (spray lightly between layers).

If using wonton wrappers: place one wrapper in each muffin cup.

4. Fill each crust with about 1½ Tbsp of apple mixture.

5. Bake for 12–15 minutes, until golden brown and bubbly.

6. Cool slightly before removing from the pan.
