McDonald’s Copycat Fried Apple Pies

McDonald’s Copycat Fried Apple Pies

Visions of McDonald's RETRO Fried Apple Pies have been dancing in my head. Remember those from the 80's? Crisp flaky, heavenly pie crust oozing with thick apple pie filling and tender chunks of spiced apple.

I had to create a copycat recipe to cure my hankering for my favorite apple pies from my childhood.  Now you can enjoy one (or 6) too!

My family actually didn't eat out much as I was growing up.  My mom made sure we had a home cooked meal every night we were home.  I would get so excited about stopping for fast food during our vacations.  I have a few favorites, but when I think about McDonald's I remember those fabulous fried apple pies.

To have my copycat fresh apple pie in my hand was like a dream come true.,  Just like the original it is crisp flaky pie crust oozing with thick spiced apple pie filling and tender chunks of tart and sweet apples.  Purely heaven.  We devoured these and I am sure you will too.

McDonald’s Copycat Fried Apple Pies

Visions of McDonald's RETRO Fried Apple Pies have been dancing in my head. Remember those from the 80's? Crisp flaky, heavenly pie crust oozing with thick apple pie filling and tender chunks of spiced apple.

Ingredients

• 2 cups 1/2” diced apples, (peeled, cored and diced) approx 2-3 medium apples (I used 1 gala and 1 granny smith apple)
• 1/2 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• pinch nutmeg
• 1/2 cup water
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• neutral oil (vegetable, canola or coconut oil)
• 2 sheets Puff Pastry

Instructions

1. Remove puff pastry from freezer, unwrap pastry and place on a floured work surface to thaw.
2. Meanwhile; in a large saucepan over medium heat combine apples, lemon juice, sugars, cinnamon and nutmeg.  Mix well.  Stir occasionally until mixture begins to bubble.
3. Meanwhile combine water and flour in a mason jar or container.  Shake to combine.  Add to pot.  Continue boiling, stirring constantly until apples are softened, approximately 5 minutes.  Remove from heat, stir in vanilla.  Set aside to cool.
4. In a heavy-bottomed pan with deep sides, heat about 1” oil to 350 degrees.
5. Meanwhile, using a sharp knife cut each pasty sheet into 3 equal long pieces.  Lay pasty sheet strips out horizontally on floured work surface.  Place 1/4 cup apple pie filling on the left half of each dough strip.  Moisten your clean fingers and wet the edge of the pastry.  Gently pick up the right side of the dough and fold dough on top of the left side, encasing the filling (if any filling seeps out push it back in).
6. Gently press along the edge with the tines of a fork.  Once all pies are assembled fry them 2 at a time.  Cook for 3-4 minutes total, carefully flipping them over halfway through.  Remove pies from oil when they are a nice golden brown.  Place pies on a stack of paper towels.  Sprinkle them with sugar and cinnamon.  Repeat until all pies are cooked.
7. Serve and enjoy!

Copycat Cinnabon Cinnamon Stix

Copycat Cinnabon Cinnamon Stix

Copycat Cinnabon Cinnamon Stix are the perfect brunch item. Utterly cinnamon-sugar coated heaven! Served with homemade Cinnabon's rich cream cheese frosting. It doesn't get much better than that!

We are heading to Florida for a blogger conference before long.  Do you know what I am looking forward to while sitting in the terminal for 2 hours waiting for my flight?  Cinnabon and Starbucks.  I am pretty lucky and usually end up at a terminal with my 2 favorite airport treats.

I also enjoy Cinnabon when I go to the mall, I mean how can you miss it?  Head in the front door and you get hit in the face by the Makara cinnamon and sugar wafting down the mall.  Oh, how I love Cinnabon.


It seems unfair to have to wait to go to the mall or leave on a trip to enjoy Cinnabon's delicacies. So, we don't wait anymore. I am pretty proud to have conquered the Copycat Cinnabon Cinnamon Roll recipe.  My family goes nuts over them.  But, when you are in a dipping mood, Cinnabon Cinnamon Stix really call your name.

With that in mind I started working on the Stix.  The Cinnabon Cinnamon Stix are made from a Danish pastry dough, brushed with vanilla and butter and then coated in cinnamon and sugar and served with Cinnabon's rich cream cheese frosting.  Not a detail was missed here.

Let's just say we went NUTS over this recipe.  It is absolutely amazing!  Let me tell you that they are soooo good that I actually gave a batch of these as a birthday gift. Ok, maybe a little less than a batch, see...  I couldn't keep my hand off of them.

If you are pressed for time, check out the shortcut method and if you don't have a stand mixer, I have included a method for mixing by hand.  No matter how you make them, you are going to love 'em!

Speaking of simple recipes, of course our new cookbook {The Simple Kitchen - available to order now}is packed with delicious, easy recipes.

Copycat Cinnabon Stix

Copycat Cinnabon Cinnamon Stix are the perfect brunch item. Utterly cinnamon-sugar coated heaven! Served with homemade Cinnabon's rich cream cheese frosting. It doesn't get much better than that!

Ingredients

• 8 ounces (1 cup) warm milk (110° to 120°)
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast (1 packet)
• 1 large egg
• 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, frozen

Toppings

• 1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, melted
• 1 tablespoons vanilla bean paste (or vanilla extract)
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon good cinnamon
• Pinch kosher salt

Dipping Sauce

• 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cups powdered sugar
• 1/2 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions

1. In the bowl of a stand mixer* fitted with a dough hook add sugar and milk.  Sprinkle yeast over top and swirl with spoon or fingers to combine.  Allow mixture to sit for about 5-10 minutes while the yeast blooms and becomes aromatic.
2. While the yeast blooms; place a cheese grater on a cool plate (run it under cold water and dry it if it is warm) and shred butter on the side with the largest holes.  Place shredded butter into refrigerator until needed.
3. With the stand mixer on low add egg, salt and 2 cups of flour.  Once flour is mostly absorbed add 1 cup flour. Turn mixer to medium and knead for 2-3 minutes.
4. With stand mixer on medium begin adding the butter, a handful at a time as the mixer kneads it in.  (be quick as you do not want the butter to melt, chunks of butter help with the flakey dough).  Once you are done adding butter, remove dough hook and allow dough to rest.  It will be a sticky heap of dough at this point.
5. Prepare a clean countertop with plenty of flour to prevent your dough from sticking. (Don’t worry, it will all get worked in).  Place dough onto floured countertop and sprinkle flour over top.  Flip dough and quickly form into a floured ball of dough.  Try to touch the dough as little as possible to keep the butter from melting.  Wrap dough in plastic wrap and place in the freezer for 1 hour (or refrigerator for 4 hours to overnight).
6. Place bread on a clean floured countertop and smack down a bit with your rolling pin.  Roll dough out to a 3:1 rectangle.  The length should be about 3 times the height.  Throughout the preparation process, if the butter peeks through, lightly dust the spot and continue.
7. Fold dough into 1/3’s like a letter.  Fold left side over, then right side.  You should have 3 layers of dough.  We are creating the flaky layers of the pastry by repeating this step.
8. Dust the top of dough with flour and flip over. 
9. Roll dough out into a 3:1 rectangle again.  Fold dough into 1/3’s like a letter.  Fold left side over, then right side.  You should have 3 layers of dough again.  Repeat again so you have done this 3 times total (note if you used the ‘by hand’ method in the cook’s notes, this will only be done 1 time after it comes out of the freezer).
10. Preheat oven to 400°F.  Prepare 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
11. Allow the dough to rest in the refrigerator while you prepare the topping ingredients.
12. In a small bowl combine cooled melted butter and vanilla.  Whisk to combine well.  Set aside.  In another small bowl, combine cinnamon, sugar and salt. Set aside.
13. Remove dough from fridge and place on a lightly dusted countertop.  Roll out to a 10”x12” rectangle.  Lightly dust with flour and flip dough.
14. Brush 1/2 of butter mixture over the top of the dough, sprinkle 1/2 of the cinnamon sugar over the top of the dough. Spread cinnamon sugar over the tops using finger tips.  Flip dough and brush the second side with remaining butter mixture and sprinkle the remaining cinnamon sugar over top.  Using a pastry cutter, bench scraper or butter knife cut dough into strips.
15. Cut dough in half long ways to make two 5”x12” pieces, then cut each piece into twelve 1”x5” strips.
16. Place strips onto a baking sheet giving them 3 twists as you place them on the sheet.  Chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes for best results, but if you can’t wait…  Pop them in the oven.
17. Bake for 15-20 minutes until the dough is flaky and golden brown.
18. In the meantime prepare frosting; add cream cheese and butter in a large mixing bowl.  Beat with an electric mixer until light and fluffy.  Add sugar, lemon juice, vanilla and salt.  Beat until mixture is light and fluffy, about 5 minutes.  Set aside. 
19. Serve and enjoy!

DONNA'S NOTES

1. SHORTCUT METHOD:  If the wish to shortcut these for a quick treat, you can substitute puff pastry found in your grocer’s freezer.  Simply dust your counter top with flour, place puff pastry on top. Continue with recipe.

BY HAND METHOD

1. If you do not have a stand mixer you can:  Add sugar and milk to a large bowl.  Sprinkle yeast over top and swirl with spoon or fingers to combine.  Allow to sit for about 5-10 minutes while the yeast bloom and become aromatic. 
2. While the yeast blooms; place a cheese grater on a plate and shred butter with the largest holes.  Place shredded butter into refrigerator until needed.
3. Add whisked egg and salt to yeast mixture. Mix with a wooden spoon.  Add flour 1 cup at a time until you are no longer able to mix with a spoon. Total of 3 cups will need to be added.
4. Roll dough out to a 3:1 rectangle.  The length should be about 3 times the height.  Sprinkle the shredded butter over dough, gently press butter into dough and fold dough into 1/3’s like a letter.  Fold left side over, then right side.  You should have 3 layers of dough.
5. Dust the top of dough with flour and flip over.  Roll dough out into a 3:1 rectangle again.  Fold dough into 1/3’s like a letter.  Fold left side over, then right side.  You should have 3 layers of dough again.  Wrap in plastic wrap and allow dough to chill in the freezer for 1 hour.  Continue with the remaining recipe.

Italian Easter Bread

Italian Easter Bread

Italian Easter Bread is a traditional Italian Easter accompaniment. It's a delicious, tender, easy to follow recipe. This Italian sweet bread will make your Easter table even more festive! Spectacular step-by-step photos!

Every family has their own special traditions and their own special recipes.  This is my version of the traditional Italian Easter Bread, we prefer a sweet Easter bread.

You can also make this savory.  You can add fruits, vegetables, garlic, sun-dried tomatoes.  There are so many options.

 

It is like a little Easter present for each guest.

And lets be honest. Sprinkles make me happy! There, I said it. I think my daughter, "the sprinkle princess" has rubbed off on me, because they are now my favorite too. It is really hard to eat rainbow sprinkles and be cranky.

 

One of our readers wrote in and shared that her family makes this every Easter, but shapes it like an eternity symbol and uses two eggs for families to prosper. I am absolutely doing that this year.

About the egg:  If you are serving right away the egg is fantastic to eat, otherwise you need to remove the egg from the bread and refrigerate.  When you are ready to serve, place the egg back on the bread.

How to Make Italian Easter Bread

• Add warm milk, melted butter, sugar and yeast to a stand mixer bowl. And allow to bloom until fragrant (yeasty smelling).
• Add beaten eggs, vanilla and flour. Beat until combined. Add the remaining flour.
• Place dough in a bowl. Let rise until doubled.
• Punch the dough down and separate into 12 somewhat equal pieces.
• Roll the dough pieces out to 12" ropes. Braid 2 pieces together and pinch the ends to hold them together. Form them into a ring and pinch to seal.
• Add the colored egg to the center and brush with egg wash.
• Bake, cool and top with simple syrup and sprinkles.

Have a blessed Easter!!

• If you are serving right away the egg is fantastic to eat, otherwise you need to remove the egg from the bread and refrigerate.  When you are ready to serve, place the egg back on the bread.

• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 3-4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup simple syrup*see Cook's note
• Nonpareil sprinkles

1. Combine milk and 1/2 cup of butter in saucepan over low and cook until butter melts. Pour butter mixture into bowl of stand mixer.
2. Allow mixture to cool to 110°-120° degrees. Add yeast and sugar. Stir to combine. Allow mixture to stand for 10 minutes so yeast can bloom.
3. Meanwhile: Beat 2 eggs and set aside. In a separate bowl beat the remaining egg and add 1 tablespoon water and whisk to combine. Set aside.
4. Add 2 beaten eggs, vanilla extract and 2 cups of flour. Combine with the dough hook attachment. Add flour 1/2 cup at a time until dough is not sticky anymore. I use the full 4 cups. Knead bread dough until smooth with the dough hook, about 5 minutes.
5. Turn out onto floured surface and knead until you have a smooth ball. Place 1 tablespoon butter in large glass bowl and microwave for 30 seconds. Place dough in greased bowl and flip to coat both sides. Cover with plastic wrap and a towel and let rise until doubled (about 90 minutes).
6. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Punch dough down, divide into 12 pieces.
7. Roll each piece to form a 1 inch thick rope about 12-14 inches long. Taking two pieces, braid together, pinching the ends, and loop into a circle.
8. Place circle on a parchment lined baking sheet and lightly cover and let rise until doubled in size (about 60 minutes).
9. Preheat oven to 350°F. Brush each bread ring with egg wash and set dyed Easter egg in the center of the ring, gently pushing down to make an indentation in the bread. Bake until golden brown, approximately 20-25 minutes.
10. Cool for 10 minutes on the baking sheet.
11. Remove from pan and place on cooling rack. Brush each Easter bread with simple syrup and sprinkle with Nonpareil sprinkles. Serve and enjoy!

DONNA'S NOTES
