Mini Apple Pie Fillo Cups

These little apple pie fillo cups are so simple to make yet come out looking like an elegant dessert. Easy enough for any weeknight dessert or when you are in the mood for apple pie but don’t want the hassle of baking a whole pie. We all love these little gems and bet you will too. 

Have you see these mini fillo cups in your local market or grocery store? If not, look for them in the frozen section of just about any market or grocery store including Target and Walmart and I was told Costco may even carry them too.

These little ready made fillo cups come already baked and ready to be for any filling savory or sweet like these little apple pie cups. They’re  light, crunchy, and just right size when you want a mini size dessert or bite size food such as an appetizer.  

This time around it was apple pie time. Well, kind of….

A while back my hubby had been craving an apple pie and I would have made him one but it was too late in the day to start a whole pie and I didn’t think there were enough apples in the house anyway.

I told him I would think of something, at that time he had me craving apple pie too. 

Then I remembered what was in the freezer and fridge. My go-to fillo cups along with some Dole diced apple cups.

Voila! A mini apple pie coming up.

When I tell you this whole dessert took about 10 minutes that is the truth.

I happened to have the little Dole apple cups but the pear or peach cups would work just as well.

  On top of all this deliciousness, they are a low fat and calorie dessert. You’ll see the nutritional content below.

Just a note… this recipe is for 2 servings. It’s easily doubled, tripled or made for any size gathering. Remember, I made this for just my hubby and myself. No kids were home at the time. That’s what’s so great about the little fillo cups, take out what you need and put the rest back in the freezer. 

They are really delicious. Give this simple recipe a try sometime.
