For the filling

2 medium apples (about 12 oz total), peeled, cored, and cut into ¼-inch dice
3 tbsp granulated sugar
1 tbsp unsalted butter
1 tsp ground cinnamon
¼ tsp ground nutmeg
1 tsp cornstarch
1 tsp fresh lemon juice

For assembly

1 large egg, beaten
1 tbsp coarse sugar or granulated sugar, for sprinkling
cooking spray

Instructions

1
Combine the diced apples, granulated sugar, butter, cinnamon, nutmeg, cornstarch, and lemon juice in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the apples have softened slightly and the liquid has thickened into a glossy coating, about 5–6 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl and let cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes.
2
Unroll the pie crusts on a lightly floured cutting board. Using a 4-inch round cutter or the rim of a bowl, cut out 4 rounds from each sheet for a total of 8 rounds. Gather and re-roll scraps if needed to reach 8 rounds.
