Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the apple filling by peeling, coring, and dicing 3-4 firm apples. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a skillet, add apples, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, ¼ cup of sugar, and a pinch of nutmeg. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until tender. Stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and cool.
  2. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Roll out puff pastry, cut into circles to line muffin tin cups, and press gently. Brush insides with melted butter. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden.
  3. Mix ¼ cup of sugar and 2 teaspoons of cinnamon for coating. Once churro bowls are baked, toss them in cinnamon-sugar while still warm.
  4. Fill each churro bowl with the cooled apple filling. Bake for an additional 5-7 minutes at 350°F (175°C).
  5. Serve the churro apple pie bowls warm, drizzled with caramel sauce or topped with vanilla ice cream.
