McDonalds Copycat Apple Pies
These apple pies were absolutely delicious and are likely much healthier than what you will get at McDonalds! They are made with puff pastry so the are light and fluffy and have a sweet and delicious caramel apple filling. They require only a few simple ingredients that you probably already have on hand! Pair them with my delicious, creamy vegan cashew icing, you can find the recipe below!
When you’re shopping for the puff pastry make sure to read the ingredients to ensure it is vegan! Many of then contain butter and/or eggs but you should be able to find vegan ones! I used the Presidents Choice brand from Loblaws, if your in the Toronto, GTA area you can find them there!
