Method
Pastry Preparation
- 1
Make the Dough
In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Cut in the unsalted butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough comes together.
- 2
Chill the Dough
Form the dough into a ball, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
Filling Preparation
- 3
Prepare the Apples
Peel, core, and slice the apples into thin wedges. In a large bowl, toss the apple slices with granulated sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice, and cornstarch until evenly coated.
- 4
Let the Filling Rest
Let the apple mixture sit for about 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Assembly and Baking
- 5
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- 6
Roll Out the Dough
On a floured surface, roll out the chilled dough to about 1/8 inch thickness. Cut into circles large enough to fit in individual pie tins.
- 7
Fill the Pies
Place the rolled-out dough into individual pie tins. Fill each with the prepared apple mixture, mounding slightly in the center.
- 8
Top the Pies
If desired, use leftover dough to create a lattice top or simply fold the edges over the filling. Cut a few slits in the top for steam to escape.
- 9
Bake the Pies
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
Serving

Serve with Toppings
Allow the pies to cool for a few minutes. Serve warm with toasted almonds sprinkled on top and a scoop of Canadian maple ice cream.
