03 Method

Step 1

Place flour, salt, and butter into the bowl of a food processor, or in a bowl and use a pastry cutter. Pulse/mix ingredients until they resemble a coarse meal.
Step 2

Drizzle the cold water one tablespoon at a time over the mixture. Continue to pulse until mixture holds together. It should be evenly moist, but not wet.
Step 3

Turn the dough out onto a well-floured work surface. Pat ball down into a disk, wrap with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for 20 minutes
Step 4

Peel, core, and thinly slice the apples. Cut the apple slices into quarters. Toss the apple slices with lemon juice. Add the sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg; toss to combine. Set aside.
Step 5

Divide the pie crust into 4 equal pieces. Place one piece on a well-floured work surface and roll out to 1/8th inch thick and slightly larger than the ramekin. Press the pie crust into the ramekin and trim the edges with a sharp knife. Repeat.
Step 6

Divide the apple filling between the two crust-lined ramekins and top each with a 1/2 tablespoon of butter. Roll out the two remaining pie crusts and place on top of your pie(s), or cut-out shapes with mini cookie cutters/stamps.
Step 7

Arrange the cut-out shapes over the top of the apple slices and butter. Optional: brush the cutouts with beaten egg and sprinkle with decorative sugar.
Step 8

Place the ramekins on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake in a preheated 350 degrees F oven for 35 to 40 minutes, until golden brown and the filling in bubbly.
Step 9

Allow to cool for ten minutes then serve with or without Vanilla Ice Cream!
