Ingredients

2 sheets pie crust or puff pastry
¼ bag kraft caramel bits or full size caramels, cut in half
1 tbsp lemon juice
2 large granny smith apples
¼ cup sugar
½ tsp cinnamon
¼ tsp nutmeg

OPTIONAL TOPPINGS

caramel sauce
whipped cream
vanilla ice cream

Instructions

Pre-heat the oven to 350°F.
Roll out the pie crust or puff pastry and use a 2" cookie cutter to cut out 24 rounds. Gently transfer to a mini muffin tin.
Add about 1/2 -3/4 tbsp. of caramel bits to the crust. Positioning them in a single layer on the bottom of the crust is ideal.
In a small bowl, combine the diced apples and lemon juice. Mix in the sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg.
Place approximately 1-1.5 Tablespoons of the apple mixture on top of the caramel. The apple mixture should peak over the top of the pastry.
Bake for 20-22 minutes for puff pastry or about 25-27 minutes for pie crust.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes before garnishing and serving.
