Apple Pecan Pie Tassies



Ingredients:

2 refrigerated pie crusts

1 egg
3/4 c. brown sugar
3/4 c. pecans, chopped
1 1/2 c. apples, peeled and diced small
1 tsp. vanilla
1 1/2 tsp. cinnamon

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Unroll one of the pie crusts onto a flat work surface. Roll the dough out thinner so that you can make 12 circles using a 2 inch biscuit cutter (or cookie cutter). Save the leftover dough and set aside. Repeat for the other pie crust. Combine the two balls of leftover pie crust together and roll out again. You will end up with approximately 48-52 circles. Place the circles in a mini cupcake tin and press down the center to make the well for the filling. Repeat for the rest of the dough circles. Set aside.

Meanwhile, mix the remaining ingredients in a large bowl. Fill about 1 tsp. of the filling in each pie crust cup. Bake for 10-12 minutes in the oven. Remove from the pans immediately and let cool fully on a wire rack.
