By Hamilton Beach Test Kitchen
raw material
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 (21 oz) can apple pie filling
- ¼ cup raisins
- 2 packages (14.1 ounces each) refrigerated pie crust (8 pieces)
- 1 large egg, beaten
instruct
- In a small bowl, combine sugar and cinnamon. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, add pie filling and roughly chop or chop apples. Stir in raisins and set aside.
- On a large cutting board, unfold pie crust. Using a 4-inch cookie cutter or the top of a small bowl, cut out 5 piecrust circles. Re-roll additional pastry to make 1 more circle. Place circles on parchment or wax paper and repeat with remaining pie crust to make 24 more circles. Brush edge of each circle 1/4 inch with beaten egg. Place 2 tablespoons of the slightly rounded apple mixture in the center and flatten slightly to form a circle.
- Place 1 circle on top of the other and beat the egg noodles together to cover the filling. Seal edges of pie crust with tines of fork. Use a fork to prick 2 sets of holes in the top of each pie. Cover the pie and refrigerate until ready to air fryer. Brush top of patties with beaten egg before frying.
- Place single layer patties in air fryer, leaving at least 1 inch of space around each patty. Set air fryer temperature to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Cook 9 to 11 minutes or until patties are golden brown. Remove to cooking rack and sprinkle with cinnamon-sugar mixture.
