Ingredients

Pastry

  • 1 Bag Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free Pie Crust
  • 12 Tbsp COLD Butter alternative
  • 8 Tbsp COLD shortening

Filling

  • 1 TBS Gluten Free Pumpkin Pie Spice
  • 1 TSP Lemon Juice
  • 1 1/2 Cups Organic Sugar
  • 1/2 TSP Sea Salt
  • 4 Granny Smith Apples Shredded

Topping

  • Wholesome Organic Powdered Confectioners’ Sugar
  • Cinnamon

Instructions

  • -Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • -Prepare pie crust according to package directions.
  • -Mix filling ingredients in a bowl, let set for 10 minutes and then drain*
  • (You can save juice for use with other recipes such as oatmeal for breakfast. In fact, any of your leftover filling can be added in oatmeal for your breakfast)
  • *While the apple mixture is draining, roll out your dough. Cut into squares using a pizza cutter or a knife. You can also roll out perfect squares using parchment paper as a package. Place squares of dough on parchment paper on the baking pan.
  • -Put filling in middle of each square. Fold over carefully sealing by pressing with the tines of a fork. If there is any breakage don’t panic, just use some left over dough to patch the holes. The dough is very delicate but pliable.
  • -Bake for 10 minutes until lightly brown. Do not overcook.
  • -Allow to cool for about 10 minutes, right on the pan. Serve with a dusting of powdered sugar and cinnamon on top or a dollop of dairy free ice cream! Enjoy.

Notes

If you want a more cooked gooey center of apples, you can put the filling in a stove top cook pan, add 2 Tbsp corn starch and cook until apples are thickened and tender. Then just add that filling on the prepared pastry squares and proceed to crimp shut and bake.
