Ingredients
Scale
Apple Cinnamon Filling:
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tbsp coconut oil
- 2 small apples – diced small
- 1.5 tbsp agave
- 1 packet of stevia
Crust:
- 2 large egg whites
- 1/4 cup agave
- 1 tbsp coconut flour
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 box Simple Mills Artisan Bread Mix
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F.
- Make your filling: Chop apples really small (can remove skins, I did not), set aside.
- In a medium pot, melt coconut oil, and add apples, cinnamon, agave, and stevia.
- Stir until apples are soft and cooked down and all ingredients are combined.
- Make your crust:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together your egg whites and your agave.
- Pour in your bread mix, cinnamon, and coconut flour, stir until well combined.
- Prepare: Roll your dough into a ball and place on a counter lined with parchment paper. Put another piece of parchment paper on top and roll until it is as thin as you can get it.
- Using a 4 inch biscuit cutter (I actually just used a little bowl I had), cut 10 circles. You will have to cut and put your dough back together and re-roll several times.
- Place 5 circles on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Place about 1.5-2 tbsp of filling on top of 5 circles and then cover each with another circle of dough. Using a fork, press the edges together so they are shut.
- Optional: melt a little more coconut oil and brush the top of your pies with it, and then sprinkle with coconut sugar.
- Bake for 15 minutes, until crust is golden brown.
- Serve warm with whipped cream or ice cream on top!
