Puppy Apple Pie

Filling Ingredients:

• 3c peeled, sliced, and cored apples
• 2/3 c water
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon

Pie Crust Ingredients:

• 2 3/4c flour
• 1c water
• 1 egg
• Coconut Oil
• Pie pan

Pie Crust Instructions:

• Mix all ingredients together until it forms a dough ball. Not too sticky and not crumbly.
• Once the right consistency, roll out to 1/4 inch thick.
• Grease your pie pan lightly with coconut oil so it won’t stick.
• Place your dough in the pie pan and trim off excess dough.
• Set aside.

Filling Instructions:

• Peel, slice, and core your apples(we prefer to dice them pretty small) and place them in your sauce pan.
• Add 4 tablespoons of water to the sauce pan and cook on low heat until apples have softened.
• In a bowl add the rest of your water, cinnamon and cornstarch. Whisk together and add into the sauce pan.
• Let it simmer for about 10 minutes and turn off.

Baking Instructions:

• Place your filling into your pie crust. You can leave it as is(open face) or you can top to with the remaining pie crust.
• Bake at 350º for 20-40 minutes or until the crust is lightly brown.
• Let it cool and serve!

When I make the pie, it is only a treat and given in moderation. I like to cut the apple pretty small, so it’s easier for them to eat, and I tend to overcook the apple, so they are pretty much apple sauce. We also cut this recipe down and use a mini pie pan, so it doesn’t go to waste.
