Mini Apple Pies Recipe!
I don’t know about you but apple pies are a staple in our house especially at Thanksgiving. I love the Mini Apple Pies recipe because it gives everyone their own individual pie or if they are too full for dessert, they can take it home with them.
I usually will make these the day before Thanksgiving obviously because the turkey will be in one of my double ovens and usually other side dishes in the other.
Let’s get baking.

7. Roll your dough out on lightly floured cutting board until its about 1/4 inch thick.
