Cooking Tips:
Dicing Apples: Cut apples into small, uniform pieces (¼ inch/6 mm) to ensure even baking.
Don’t Overfill: Be careful not to overfill pastry cups to avoid spills during baking.
Venting: Leave small gaps in the pastry for air to escape and ensure even baking.
Brushing with Egg: While optional, brushing with beaten egg helps create a shiny, golden finish on pies.
Use a Cooling Rack: Allow pies to cool on a rack to make the crust crispier.
