I feel like this recipe will play out more like a How-to than an actual recipe. You ever do arts and craft activities from Highlights Magazine? It’s sort of like that!
You’ll need:
2 frozen pie crusts; thawed
Eagle Brand Dulce de Leche
E.D. Smith Apple Pie filling
Circular cookie cutter
Pizza cutter
Spatula
Egg wash (1 egg + 1 tsbp. water)
1 tbsp. sugar
Adult supervision
Preheat oven to 350°F and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
Flour your work surface and roll out one pie crust and cut out 12 circles with the cookie cutter. Spread a small amount of the Dulce de Leche in the centre of the circle, then top it with a spoonful of the apple pie filling.

Roll out the other dough on a floured surface and cut into strips with the pizza cutter. Lay them across each other to create a lattice and cut them with the cookie cutter. Carefully lift off the surface using a spatula and place on top of the filling. Brush with the egg wash and sprinkle with sugar. Bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown.
