STEPS

1

Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat until golden brown and toasted, about 1 minute.

2

Add apples, white sugar, brown sugar, and salt. Cook and stir until softened, about 5 minutes. Mix in cinnamon and water. Continue cooking for 1-2 minutes until soft and sticky. Cool the filling.

3

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone mat.

4

Form a piece of dough into a ball, roll into an 8-inch circle on a floured surface.

5

Place 1/3 to 1/2 cup of the apple filling in the center of each circle.

6

Fold the dough over the filling and seal by pinching and crimping the edges tightly.

7

Brush the pies with egg and milk mixture, and sprinkle with white sugar. Cut 3 small vent holes in each pie.

8

Bake in the oven until golden brown, 25-30 minutes. Let cool for at least 15 minutes before serving.
