Pies are something that I have always seen in various TV series, you know when they show Family get-togethers and I have always been meaning to make them. It was not so long ago that I found out that tart and pie have almost the same recipe and with a perfect tart recipe I was sure that my pie would be perfect as well.
Made a batch of these tiny classic apple pie with a Christmasy Cinnamon flavor and since I made very little filling in caparison with the dough I added some pomegranate to it because why not. I honestly didn’t expect them to turn out this good in the very second attempt but they did, and you know if I can make it anyone can. Happy Baking!!!
