Made these Sunday morning to take to my in-laws and was so proud of how pretty they turned out! Even spent a few minutes fussing with them so they would look nice. Well, wouldn't you know I completely forgot to take a picture of them!
Anyway, they were a big hit and the folks just loved them, so will be making them again. Thought I would add a few of my tips to the thread.
I put a dusting of flour down on a wooden cutting board, then rolled the dough out (just a bit) to try and 'square it off' a bit because I decided that might yield an extra cookie or two and it did. Next, I put the pie filling in the food processor to break it up in small chunks, then spread it on the pie crust. I forgot to buy the caramel sauce, but it was fine without it.
Next, I rolled out the second crust the same way as the first. I took my pizza cutter and cut slightly less then 1/2" strips, then laid them across the filling. Since I was short on time, I did not weave them, just put them on about an inch apart in each direction. It worked out fine.
Then, I took my ravioli cutter (which is square) and actually got 14 nice squares out of it, and bits of scraps which tasted just fine. I used the egg wash and cinnamon sugar as per the recipe.
FYI, saw a cute idea on FB posted by 12 Tomatoes. They did almost the same thing as I just described. Instead of cutting strips to cross, they just put the second pie crust on top of the filling, then cut the whole thing into thirds, then into 1/2" strips, using a wide spatula to transfer the pieces to a baking sheet.
After the strips were baked, they put them on a plate and drizzled with caramel sauce and called them 'apple french fries'. My grandkids really liked that idea.
