How to Make Apple Pie Pops
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and lightly grease with non-stick cooking spray.
- In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, combine the diced apples, granulated sugar, lemon juice, and apple pie spice.
- Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and cook for 2 minutes.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the water and cornstarch until smooth. Add this mixture to the apples and cook, stirring constantly, until the filling has thickened (about 1-2 minutes).
- Remove the apple mixture from the heat and let it cool completely.
- Unfold each sheet of pie crust on a lightly floured surface. Using a 3-inch round cookie cutter, cut out 10 circles from each sheet. Reroll scraps as needed.
- Place a scant tablespoon of the cooled apple filling in the center of each circle.
- Fold the dough over the filling to form a half-moon shape. Crimp the edges with a fork to seal, or use a dumpling press for a cleaner finish.
- Insert a lollipop stick into one corner of each pie pop, pushing it up into the fold to secure it. Pinch the dough around the stick to ensure it's firmly attached.
- Place the pie pops onto the prepared baking sheets.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the egg yolk and 1 tablespoon of water. Brush this egg wash over the tops of the pie pops.
- In another small bowl, combine the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar and the cinnamon. Sprinkle the mixture evenly over the pie pops.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the pie pops are golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
- Let the pie pops cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
