Get the matching parchment rounds too... a great addition to the cake pans!!

Make pie dough by cutting in (using a pastry blender, a fork or food processor) butter, and into the flour, sugar, salt, cornstarch, cinnamon and baking powder mixture. The butter should break down into small bits, and dough will look shaggy. Add liquid, sprinkling over the dough, mix together gently until dough comes together. ** The key to great dough is adding the least amount of liquid, while still creating a dough. When the water is added and stirred, wait one minute and gently stir again. Sometimes the flour needs a few seconds to drink in the liquid. Press the dough together to see if it comes together. If dough is still dry--add one additional Tablespoon of water if necessary.</span></p><p class="p2" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-size: 28px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 34px;"><span class="s2" style="font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody;"></span><br /></p><p class="p1" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-size: 28px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span class="s2" style="font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody;">Step 2: Using a rolling pin roll the dough 1/4 inch thickness on a floured work surface.

Place a second tree cut-out to cover the filling. Crimp edges of the dough together by pressing together. Using a fork, use the fork tines to finish and secure the edges by pressing dough edges, trim excess.</span></p><p class="p1" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-size: 28px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span class="s2" style="font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody;">Place prepared hand-pies on a parchment lined baking sheet.</span></p><p class="p2" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-size: 28px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 34px;"><span class="s2" style="font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody;"></span><br /></p><p class="p1" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-size: 28px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span class="s2" style="font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody;">Step 5: Repeat, using all the dough to make more trees. <span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>Using a knife, slit each hand pie gently to allow steam to escape while baking.</span></p><p class="p1" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-size: 28px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span class="s2" style="font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody;">Bush with egg wash.

Turn off heat and let cool. —VERY important to let the mixture cool. Hot filling will make a soggy and not pretty puff of the puff pastry.

If you need the apples to cook a little longer-I sometimes will add 1/4 cup of apple cider and let them simmer in that liquid until much of the liquid has evaporated. All apples are different and your cooking time will greatly depend on how big your apple slices are cut are the variety of apple you are using… bottom line… cook those apples until they are soft and tender. It’s ok to add cider and simmer on low until you reach a great apple consistency.</span></p><p class="p2" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-size: 28px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 34px;"><span class="s1" style="font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody;"></span><br /></p><p class="p1" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-size: 28px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span class="s1" style="font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody;">Stir together the crumb topping-in a small bowl using a fork—add flour, sugar, butter, spice, and bread crumbs (Why bread crumbs??
