- - a pinch of salt;

Instructions
Step 1
Put flour, salt and sugar in a mixer bowl, mix and add pieces of butter. Pour in a little water and mix the ingredients with a spoon so that dust does not rise from beating with a mixer. We begin to knead the dough, gradually pouring in water. The dough should be neither too firm nor too runny.
Step 2
Cover the finished dough with foil and put it in the refrigerator for an hour.
Step 3
At this time, we are preparing the filling. Cut the apples into small pieces and mix in a bowl with sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, starch and a pinch of salt.
Step 4
Pour in the melted butter and mix all the ingredients.
Step 5
Preheat the oven to 180C, grease the cake pan with a small amount of vegetable oil.
Step 6
Take the dough out of the refrigerator and roll it out 3 mm thick. Using two glasses, we cut out 2 circles of 11 and 8.5 cm in diameter (these sizes are ideal for molds 6, 5 cm in diameter, if the shapes are smaller or larger, you need to adjust the size of the circles from the dough).
Step 7
Place the larger circles of dough in the muffin pan to make a kind of basket.
Step 8
We put the filling in the molds and cover with dough circles of a smaller diameter, pinch the edges to make miniature pies. We make a cruciform hole so that steam escapes.
Step 9
We bake miniature apple pies for 25-30 minutes. Let them cool for 15 minutes, serve!
