I’m loving all issues apple recently, and I’ve been making apple desserts nearly each weekend for the reason that begin of the season! So final weekend was no exception, I made a decision to make some apple hand pies! Besides not with the same old pie dough, with filo dough! I’ve made savory ones with it up to now or particular person spanokopitas and stuff, and liked the feel so I assumed why not a candy one! These Vegan Apple Filo Hand Pies turned out so scrumptious I needed to share them!
They’re truly fairly simple to make. I made the filling first, the day earlier than truly so it might cool. It’s fairly easy like a pie filling simply cooked in a pan. I added some maple and vanilla flavors to make it further scrumptious! For the filo dough, you wish to be sure you thaw it out in a single day so it’s simpler to work with the subsequent day and would not break as a lot. Then while you’re working with it I like to recommend placing plastic wrap over the items you are not working with so it would not dry out.
I brushed it with vegan butter so it obtained good and flaky and wrapped it across the flavorful apple filling. You must be light with it, however I really feel like it’s nonetheless much less work than common pie dough that you just make from scratch. After they have been wrapped up and given one final brush of butter, I sprinkled them with sugar and popped them into the oven for about 20 minutes! They smelled sooo good!
As soon as they’d cooled down and I used to be in a position to strive one, it was so scrumptious! Tender candy apples scented with cinnamon, maple and vanilla wrapped in crispy flaky dough, excellent served with some vegan whipped cream for dipping! If you’re within the temper for one thing with apples, positively give these Vegan Apple Filo Hand Pies a strive!
