Transform ordinary apple pie into something extraordinary with these innovative Churro Apple Pies! Featuring crispy puff pastry bowls tossed in cinnamon sugar and filled with caramelized apples, these individual desserts deliver the beloved flavors of both churros and apple pie in one delightful package. The apple filling, simmered with brown sugar, cinnamon, and lemon juice, creates a rich, tender center while the crunchy, sugar-coated exterior adds the perfect textural contrast. Finish with a drizzle of caramel for an irresistible treat.

Ingredients
FOR THE CHURRO BOWLS
Cooking spray
2 oz. (12-oz.) packages puff pastry, thawed 
1/2 c. cinnamon sugar
FOR THE APPLE FILLING
2 tbsp. butter
4 apples, peeled, cored, and chopped

(continued in the next column ↗️)

1/4 c. granulated sugar
1/4 c. lightly packed brown sugar
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
Pinch kosher salt
Caramel, for serving
Directions
  • Preheat oven to 400° and spray an inverted muffin tin with cooking spray.
  • Roll out puff pastry and using a 4" cookie cutter, cut out 12 circles.
  • Place puff pastry on inverted muffin tin and press to form bowls.
  • Bake until golden, 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Let cool. 
  • Since puff pastry puffs, you may have to use an oven mitt and gently press bowls back onto muffin tin and reshape bowls.
  • When cool enough to handle, remove bowls from muffin tin and toss in cinnamon sugar. 
  • Make apple pie filling: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt butter.
  • Add apples, sugars, lemon juice, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt.
  • Cook, stirring occasionally, until apples are soft and caramelized, 20 minutes.
  • Let cool 10 minutes. 
  • Fill churro bowls with apple pie filling and drizzle with caramel.
