Can these be made a day or so ahead & kept refrigerated? Looking for Fall desserts for catering service.

So fast and easy! I use granny smith apples. It's like making mini apple pies but much easier.

What a fun way to make individual apple pie slices. Loved it. Next time I am going to use my own pie crust and think it will even be better.

We used honeycrisp apples, and tossed the slices in the cinnamon sugar mixture rather than sprinkling it on the dough. We had them with a side of warmed caramel ice cream topping for dipping. Fast, fun, delicious.

Amazing, simply amazing. Easy to make, delicious to eat and was loved by all. I have an apple tree in the backyard and come harvest time, i plan to make this a weekly staple. i served with warm caramel sauce for dipping. Score!

What's not to love? Pie crust, apples, cinnamon, butter? Mmmm good. I love hand held food when serving a crowd or group. This will go in my recipe file!

Another great, easy dessert to whip up quick. We enjoy these on a weekend in the fall.

We had a lot of fun rolling this up as a family. We took leftovers to a large gathering and they were quickly gobbled up. So easy - I am no baker and pies intimidate me. This is completely doable for those of us who rely on refrigerated pie crusts! I especially love that I didn't have to peel and cube the apples! Just used my apple wedger, trimmed a little, and then ready to go!
