It&#8217;s filled with quintessential fall flavors. But what to do when you want apple pie, but don&#8217;t want to make a whole pie? Try one of the baked apple recipes that are floating around the internet. We came across Missi Perez of Lifeispoppin.com&#8217;s <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/lifeispoppin.com\/lattice-crust-baked-apples\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Lattice Crust Baked Apples<\/a> on Pinterest and gave them a try. Would they satisfy an apple pie craving? We fired up the oven to find out.<\/p>\n<h3>Gather the Ingredients<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Refrigerated pie crust<\/li>\n<li>8 apples (Granny Smith recommended)<\/li>\n<li>1 tsp cornstarch<\/li>\n<li>1 Tbsp warm water<\/li>\n<li>3 tsp cinnamon, divided<\/li>\n<li>1\/4 tsp nutmeg<\/li>\n<li>3\/4 cup sugar, divided<\/li>\n<li>1 large egg<\/li>\n<li>1 tsp water<\/li>\n<li>Store bought caramel sauce<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/p>\n<h3>To Make Lattice Crust Baked Apples<\/h3>\n<p>1. In a small bowl, combine cornstarch and water. Stir until cornstarch is completely dissolved. Set aside. Preheat the oven to 375.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>2. Take four of the apples, peel and dice them making sure to remove the core. Place chunks into the bowl with cornstarch\/water mixture.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>3. Add the apple chunks, cornstarch\/water, 1\/4 cup sugar and 1 tsp of cinnamon to a saute pan. Cook over medium heat until they begin to soften. Then, reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from heat to cool.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>4. Take the remaining apples and slice the tops off. Using a melon baller, remove the center of the apple. Make sure not to get too close to the outer skin and leave enough apple so when baked it doesn&#8217;t lose its shape.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>5. Lay pre-made pie crust on a lightly floured surface. Using a knife or pizza cutter, cut the crust into 1\/4&#8243; strips.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>6. Place apples into a baking dish. Fill each apple with the filling.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>7. Make an egg wash by whisking the egg with 1 tsp water. In a separate bowl, combine 1\/2 c sugar, 1 tsp cinnamon, and 1\/4 tsp nutmeg.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>8. Take pie dough slices and place them on top of the stuffed apples creating a lattice.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>9. Brush the pie dough with the egg wash.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>10. Sprinkle the cinnamon-nutmeg sugar on top.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>11. Place baking dish into the preheated oven. Bake for 30 minutes. It&#8217;s finished baking when the crust is golden brown and the apple filling is bubbling.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>12. Once on a plate, drizzle with caramel sauce. The drizzle is optional but highly recommended.<br \/><\/p>\n<h3>The Results<\/h3>\n<p>A Pinterest Pass!<br \/>These little baked apples are delicious! The apple filling is simple to make and tastes just like apple pie. Using pre-made dough helps to keep this recipe easy and bakes up to a golden brown. The lattice is beautiful and tasty. This is definitely a yummy, showstopping dessert. <\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<h3>Test Kitchen Tips<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Be careful when scooping out the apples. If you scoop too much toward the bottom the apple pie filling will leak when baking.<\/li>\n<p><\/p>\n<li>Large to medium-sized apples work best for this.<\/li>\n<p><\/p>\n<li>You can substitute a different apple, but we think Granny Smith are best. They are tart and pair well with the sugar in the filling. Plus they&#8217;re a little heartier and stand up to the baking. If you do want to substitute, Braeburn, Honeycrisp, or Gala may work.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What&#8217;s better in fall than apple pie?
