Delicious Apple Pie Bites

I came across this recipe from the Blond Cook and Pillsbury and had to share it with you.  These delicious apple pie bites are so simple to make and so yummy I really encourage you to give them a try.  They take just a few ingredients and thirty minutes of your time and you have a terrific warm apple bite sized treat.

What you will need:

• Original can of Pillsbury crescent rolls
• 1 small granny smith apple
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 3 tablespoons butter
• 1/3 cup pecans (optional)
• 1 1/4 teaspoon apple pie spice

Apple Pie Spice

• 1 1/2 Tablespoon ground cinnamon
• 1 1/2 Teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1 Teaspoon Allspice

Step 1: Delicious Apple Pie Bites

Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.  Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.  Core and slice the apple into 8 (1/2″) slices.

Step 2: Delicious Apple Pie Bites

Combine the brown sugar with 1 teaspoon of apple pie spice and set aside. Melt the butter in a small bowl and drop in the apples.  Set aside.

Step 3: Delicious Apple Pie Bites

Open the can of crescent rolls and lay the triangles onto the parchment paper.  Evenly coat the triangles with the brown sugar mixture.  Sprinkle with pecans.

Step 4: Delicious Apple Pie Bites

Place an apple slice onto the wide end of the triangle and roll up.

Step 5: Delicious Apple Pie Bites

Brush the rolls with the melted butter and sprinkle with remaining apple pie spice.  Bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.  Cool for five minutes before serving either alone or with ice cream.
