Mini Mummy Apple Pie Bites

These Mini Mummy Apple Pie Bites are basically the Halloween snack equivalent of a wink and a nudge. You get all the cozy flavors of warm apple pie—wrapped up like a spooky little mummy—but without the hours of baking or the stress of pie perfection. Bonus: They’re just creepy-cute enough to impress your guests and easy enough that you can whip them up in the middle of a busy fall week.
Why You’ll Love Them
- Bite-sized fun: Perfect for parties, lunch boxes, or sneaky midnight snacks.
- Sweetly spooky: Those candy eyeballs are basically begging for Instagram fame.
- Low effort, big payoff: Store-bought pie crust keeps things simple without sacrificing that homemade vibe.
Ingredients
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 large or 2 medium apples (Honeycrisp or Granny Smith work well)
- All-purpose flour, for dusting
- ½ (14.1-oz.) package refrigerated piecrusts (1 pie crust)
- 3 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted, divided
- Caramel sauce, warmed
- Candy eyeballs
Instructions
- Preheat & Prep: Fire up the oven to 400°F and line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment. In a small bowl, stir together the sugar and cinnamon like the mischievous witch you are.
- Apple Prep: Slice the apple into about 20 quarter-inch slices. Toss them in a large bowl with 1 tablespoon of the cinnamon-sugar mix until each slice is deliciously coated.
- Mummy Bandages: On a lightly floured surface, roll the pie crust into a 10-inch square. Brush with half the melted butter and shower with half of the remaining cinnamon-sugar. Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, slice into 20 thin (½-inch) strips.
- Wrap & Roll: Take each apple slice and loosely wrap it with a dough strip, cinnamon-sugar side touching the apple. Tuck the ends underneath like you’re tucking in a tiny spooky friend. Place the wrapped apples on the prepared sheet.
- Final Sprinkle & Bake: Brush the mummies with the rest of the melted butter and sprinkle on the remaining cinnamon-sugar. Bake for about 15 minutes, until the crust is golden and crisp.
- Add the Eyes: Once slightly cooled, use warm caramel sauce as “glue” to stick on the candy eyeballs. Serve with extra caramel for dipping—because caramel is basically Halloween’s love language.
Pro Tips
- Extra caramel drizzle: Don’t just dip—zigzag caramel on top before serving for an even bigger wow factor.
- Crisp It Up: For extra crunch, brush the wrapped dough with a touch of heavy cream instead of butter before sprinkling on the cinnamon sugar.
- Caramel Control: Warm your caramel sauce gently in a microwave-safe bowl in 10-second bursts, stirring between each, so it stays silky and pourable without scorching.
Pairing Suggestions
- A mug of warm apple cider or spiced chai.
- Vanilla ice cream for the ultimate spooky sundae.
- A Halloween movie marathon (Hocus Pocus, anyone?).
Favorite Tools Used
