Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and bake the mini pie shells for about 10–12 minutes, until golden brown and crisp.
  2. Brush the rims of the baked shells with melted unsalted butter and coat in a mixture of granulated sugar and ground cinnamon.
  3. Warm the apple pie filling in a saucepan over low heat until just warm, about 5 minutes.
