Churro Apple Pies
These Churro Apple Pies are cute individual apple pies with the added flavor of churros thanks to being dusted in cinnamon sugar. I always use ready made puff pastry for these apple pies with churro crust because life is often too hectic to make my own!
I start these delish churro apple pies by baking pastry circles onto an inverted muffin pan. Naturally, puff pastry puffs up when cooking! So, you might need to gently press the pastry bowls back onto the muffin pan to reshape them. Make sure you use an oven mitt! Then I combine the apple filling ingredients in a pot and cook until the apples have caramelized. I add the filling to the bowls and drizzle with caramel to serve. Yum!
To make Churro Apple Pies, you will need the following ingredients:
Steps to make Churro Apple Pies
1 | Heat oven and prepare a muffin pan | 5 |
Preheat the oven to 400 °F and lightly grease an inverted muffin pan with cooking spray. | ||
2 | Prepare pastry bowls | 3 |
Using a rolling pin, roll out 2 packages of puff pastry. Cut out 12 circles using a 4-inch cookie cutter. Place a circle of puff pastry on each inverted muffin holder. Press the pastry down to form bowl-shapes. | ||
3 | Bake | 12 |
Bake in the oven for 10-12 minutes until golden. Remove from the oven and leave to cool. | ||
4 | Coat in cinnamon sugar | 2 |
Once the bowls are cool enough to touch, mix them with ½ a cup of cinnamon sugar. | ||
5 | Melt butter | 2 |
Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. | ||
6 | Add remaining ingredients | 1 |
Add 4 peeled, cored and chopped apples, ½ cup of granulated sugar, the juice of ½ a lemon, 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon and a pinch of kosher salt. | ||
7 | Cook | 20 |
Cook the apple mixture for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apples have softened and caramelized. | ||
8 | Fill pastry bowls | 10 |
Leave to cool for about 10 minutes before filling the churro bowls with the apple pie filling. | ||
9 | Serve | 1 |
Serve immediately drizzled with caramel. Enjoy! | ||

Had my kids bouncing off the walls with how sugary this is lol.
Absolutely wonderful and such a unique flavor you'll want more than just one of this mini pies for sure.
It's alright but kinda plain I think I needed to add a lot more sugar to mine or something.
Can't say I'm a fan of sweet things but this was really good nonetheless.
Too good to be true can't believe I've never had anything like this before oh my gosh..
Fantastic and not too hard to make really glad I tried it out.
Fluffy and delicious had no idea i'd be able to make this from home and now it's going to be all I make for dessert for an entire month LOL
Obsessed with the taste of these churro apple pies they are delicious!!!
They are cute but not that different from normal apple pie in my opinion.
Not my favorite Mexican dessert I liked the flan a lot more it truly was the best.
My mother tried this and liked it a lot but I don't have a huge sweet tooth so It was really sugary for me.
Top 10 Mexican desserts on the planet, this should be ranked number 3 for sure number one being the waffles cause those are just the bomb.
Now I'm hooked on this website, ya'll legit have the best things a person with a sweet tooth could ask for.
These are adorable and delicious I shaped mine into hearts :)
I ate some of these in the morning for breakfast with some tea it's good.
Easy and affordable plus unique thanks so much.
Added a bit more cinnamon to mine but other than that the taste was purrrfect.
It taste just like a cinnamon bun with apples.
My husband and I tried these out and we were glaring eachother down for the last one hahahah.
I liked it a lot thanks so much for sharing.
