You Are the Apple of My Pies

Apple pie is one of those comfort foods that just is.  It's sweet and fruity, with some kind of crispy or soft crust and a touch of spice.  And it goes with most any meal.  It just needs to be wrapped accordingly.  Apple pies in tortillas, crepes, empanadas, even pitas.  The possibilities are endless.  I made some delicious chicken bahn mi sandwiches a couple of weeks ago but I wanted an easy dessert to accompany it. So I created these mini wonton apple pies.  It fit the theme just right. 

Just the right touch of sweet and made to satisfy without all the guilt.  And just roughly over 100 calories for two!

Mini Wonton Apple Pies

18 wonton wrappers

3 apples chopped

3 Tb brown sugar

1 Tb whole wheat flour

1 tsp cinnamon

Juice of one lime

1/2 cup oatmeal

Preheat oven to 350F. Grease a 12 cup muffin tray with cooking spray and place wonton wrappers in each cup. You may have to bake the other 6 in another batch if you only have one tray. 

Combine remaining ingredients except oatmeal in a large bowl.  Fill each wonton lined cup with 2 heaping tablespoons of filling.  Sprinkle each with 1/2 tablespoon oatmeal.  Carefully spray tops with additional cooking spray.  Bake for 10-15 minutes until edges of wontons are browned.

Serves 9.  Prep 10min.  Bake 15min. 

These can be served with your favorite Asian style meal or as a quick snack on a movie night with the kids.  Nom, nom!
