Instructions for crust Combine the flour
Instructions for crust
Combine the flour, sugar, and salt to a food processor bowl. Mix using the pulse setting.
Add butter and shortening and pulse about 10 -12 times until the texture is changed to small pebbles.
Add ¾ of the ice water and pulse a few more times until the dough takes the shape of a ball. Add more water as needed. Don't overmix. Don't worry if the dough isn't completely blended. You will use your rolling pin to finish creating the crust.
Place dough ball onto the counter and flatten into a flat disc. Wrap it in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least an hour or overnight.
Instructions for pie filling
Heat butter over medium heat, until just golden brown
Add brown sugar, spices, salt and lemon juice. Stir to combine ingredients
Add diced apples and stir.
Allow apples to cook for about 5-7 minutes, over medium heat
Remove from heat and let the apple mixture cool. You can place apples in the refrigerator to speed up the process.
Mix egg and water for an egg wash.
Roll out pie dough to 1/8 inch thickness.
Cut out rounds of 2 ½ to 3 inches and place them on parchment paper. You will need to roll out the extra dough left over scraps from cutting.
In half of the rounds, cut out shapes or holes for ventilation purposes
On the other half of the rounds, gently press one lollipop stick about halfway up each round.
Place one tablespoon of apple mixture in the center of each round.
Place each round on top of apples seal the edges.
Brush each pie pop with egg wash and sprinkle sugar on top.
Bake 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
Enjoy!

Read it through first
Skim all 2 steps before you start — it is the difference between cooking and firefighting.
Scale it
Use the servings stepper above the ingredients and every quantity adjusts. Cooking times stay roughly the same.
Storage
Cool completely, then keep in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days.
Reheating
Reheat gently with a splash of water in a covered pan, rather than blasting it, so nothing dries out.
Approximate values per serving. Worked out from the ingredient list — treat them as a guide, not a measurement.
