Ready in under an hour, they’re the ultimate handheld indulgence that will leave everyone reaching for seconds.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, and salt for the crust. Cut in the chilled butter using a pastry cutter or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually add the ice-cold water, one tablespoon at a time, and mix until the dough comes together. Form the dough into a disk, wrap it in plastic, and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, prepare the filling by combining the diced apples, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice in a medium bowl. Toss until the apples are well-coated.
Roll out the chilled dough on a lightly floured surface to about 1/8-inch thickness. Use a round cookie cutter or a glass to cut out circles slightly larger than the muffin tin cups.
Press the dough circles into the muffin tin cups, ensuring they cover the sides evenly.
Spoon the apple filling into each crust-lined cup, filling them almost to the top.
To make the crumble topping, mix the oats, flour, brown sugar, and melted butter in a small bowl until crumbly.
Sprinkle the crumble topping over the apple filling in each mini pie.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the apples are tender.
Allow the pies to cool in the tin for 10 minutes before carefully removing them. Serve warm or at room temperature.
