Step 1.
Start by making the mince. Chop the apples into small pieces and place them into a saucepan.

Step 2.
Slice the vanilla pod in half and scrape the seeds into the pan. Then add in all the remaining ingredients and stir it together

Step 3.
Let the mince simmer for about 30 minutes, until the apples are nice and soft.

Step 4.
TO make the crust, mix all the ingredients in one bowl. Knead the dough until it comes together and you can roll it on a floured surface with a rolling pin.

Step 5.
Grease muffin tins with coconut oil and then shape the dough into the individual tins, once you’ve done this cut the remaining mixture into shapes – we also made leaves - these will go on top of the pies.

Step 7.
Once the mince has cooked start assembling the pies. Simply add two heaped teaspoons of mince into each pie before placing a leaf over the middle of the mince.
