Our neighbor has an apple tree. My daughter covets that tree. Patiently waiting. Waiting since spring, when I cut down our apricot tree that I don’t think she’s yet forgiven me for.
So now that the apples have finally ripened for harvest, we nonchalantly wandered over to check out the tree, and borrow a few apples. Yes mom, she said we could.
What to do with them apples? My Smudge’s request has been apple pie—again with the pie! When will this girl’s pie obsession be satiated? Um, maybe when I bake her a pie?
If you make this recipe, please let me know! Leave a comment below or take a photo and tag me on Instagram with #foodiecrusheats.
But with no time to make a full blown crust, I pulled a puff pastry from the freezer and baked up an alternative that put her pleadings on the back burner, for now…
Baked Apple Cups
Ingredients
- 1 ½ sheets frozen puff pastry
- 2 T melted butter
- 2 teaspoon sugar
- 3 apples cored and thinly sliced
- 2 T plus 1 teaspoon brown sugar
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ⅛ teaspoon nutmeg
- 2 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon zested lemon rind
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Thaw puff pastry dough and cut into six pieces, discarding remaining two pieces. Brush with melted butter and place into greased 6 X 1 cup muffin tins. Sprinkle pastry with refined sugar. Combine remaining ingredients reserving 1 teaspoon brown sugar. Divide between tins and sprinkle with remaining brown sugar. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until pastry is golden. Serve with vanilla ice cream.
Notes
How about a few more apples that don’t fall far from the tree? Enjoy.

Michael shares his tidy parcels of goodness with his moist (thanks to the buttermilk) caramel-ey (thanks to the cream and sugar) and sinfully salty (thanks to the fleur de sal) Cinnamon Apple Cake, laced with salted caramel in Inspiring the Every Day‘s individual desserts. I’ll take two.

Dara, our favorite Cookin’ Canuck, has given her own spin to a recipe originating from Pam Anderson of Three Many Cooks, and created Apple Upside-Down Biscuits with Gala apples and complimentary nutmeg, cinnamon—plus the pièce_de_résistance, ice cream!

Lisa’s secret to a crunchy, but light as air fritter is rice flour, which makes My Lemony Kitchen‘s Apple Fritters with Ice Cream a better than good, gluten-free dessert. And don’t forget the extra sweet topper of a piece of really good chocolate. Just for that extra gooey factor.

Amy has a secret I too share, save yourself the headache and forget trying to make puff pastry from scratch. Tiny Tea Room‘s nuggets of Apple Almond Snail Pastries combine almond cream and an apple filling for the perfect pop-in-in-your-mouth dessert.

You are so right Barb. What a terrific cuplette idea, and the photo looks so tempting I wanted to lick the screen. Aren’t they cute lil’ things? I actually did save it and made mini galettes for my daughter that leaked out all over the sheet.
WOW. Those upside down apple biscuits sound absolutely amazing!
What a terrific cuplette idea, and the photo looks so tempting I wanted to lick the screen. These easy little cuties will end my next ladies lunch and bring satisfied smiles all around.
Love this recipe round-up! I am bookmarking all of these! :-)
Heidi,
I am *SO* loving the picture of your apple pie cuplettes – simply magazine class! GORGEOUS!
I’m almost certain how oh-so-delish they must be…
BTW, need I tell you how hooked I am to Donna Hay ever since you intro’d me to it? xoxo
Radhika you are too kind. And yup, purdy tasty!
Gorgeous! The smell of apple and cinnamon, that just screams Fall…
I love your cuplettes!! What a great treat for when you don’t want to go all out to make pie. And as always, I love all of your finds!
Aren’t they cute lil’ things? And the perfect excuse to put away your rolling pin.
I am so thrilled I am posted on your beautiful site! Those apple cuplettes and the other desserts are incredibly gorgeous as they look delicious.
You are so welcome. Your cake was a hit in this post, a fan-fave. But I mean, why not, just look at it!
What a delicious, gorgeous roundup of apple desserts. Your tartlets look amazing but never discard puff pastry :)
You are so right Barb. I actually did save it and made mini galettes for my daughter that leaked out all over the sheet. The muffin tins definitely work best at this size. :)
I’m thoroughly inspired by all five of these creative apple desserts! I can’t wait to stock up on apples and cook up some sweet fall desserts to go along with my homemade vanilla bean ice cream.
Oh, your recipe looks amazing. And a definite topper to the cuppers.
Oh my gosh… I’m going gaga for all these desserts!!!!
You are Baked Apple Cuplettes are so darn cute and, considering that I have a severe pie crust phobia (making it, not eating it), I love that they are made with puff pastry. Thanks so much for including my (Pams’) upside-down apple biscuits.
Love everything you cook, and yes bake! We should have a pie crust party, because I’m a bit of a phobe too.
I’m just hoping there’s room in your little apple pies for…oh…I dunno….MY WHOLE HEAD.
Take ’em down one by one.
I think that I am gonna love all these apple recipes!
Yay! We go apple picking every fall and I’m always looking for fun new apple recipes to try out. This will come in handy in a couple of weeks.
Oh wow, all these apple desserts look amazing! A couple days ago I posted about Caramel Apple Bars that I made. And now I have all these other apple desserts I want to try :)
