** “Salt and Ketchup” term disclaimer:
.. “Salt and Ketchup” are used as a play on words in this recipe and not meant to be literal descriptors. “Salt” is really sugar sprinkled on the “Fries” to mimic the look of salt typically found on fries. “Ketchup” is really Caramel Sauce, used as a dip for the Apple Pie”Fries”. I apologize to the few (many lol) of you who didn’t quite get it, and actually dipped your salty apple pie fries into real ketchup! Sorry for the confusion! 🙂
When it comes to desserts, it just doesn’t get much better in life than a nice slice of good old, all-American Apple Pie!
Unless of course you can grab that Apple Pie and take it wherever you’d like to go.
~Perfectly flaky, pretty little, sweet sticks of portable Apple Pie!
And this Pie is in ‘French Fry’ form…another all American favorite snack delight! These “Fries” are not only super delicious, but how cute are they with their easy-to-eat, adorable presentation, and sweet sugary “salt”?!
Sweet Apple Pie Filling is the glue that lovingly holds the two flaky layers of Pie Crust together, all baked into tons of perfectly puffed, “Fries” of happiness!
Kids and kid’s at heart will just love this fun and easy way to enjoy Apple Pie! You can even make it A La Mode and dip them into some ice Cream…Ohhh yeahh! 🙂
What you’ll need for 25-30 Apple Pie Fries:
1 Package of Pillsbury Refrigerated pie Crust (2 ct.)
Approx. 1.5 cups of Apple Pie Filling
1 Egg
Sparkle Sugar for sprinkling..a.k.a. “Salt”
Caramel Sauce and/or Ice Cream for dipping
A food processor..optional!
A decorative edge roll-cutter..optional!
Directions:
Chop up the Apple Pie Filling as best as you can. I used a food processor and it worked great!
Unroll each crust and spread the Filling onto one of them…leave a 1/8″ border around the edge…(better than I did..lol)
Put the other Pie Crust on top and press lightly to secure it.
Make an egg wash by mixing the egg with a splash of water.
Brush some egg wash on the top, and sprinkle it with the Sugar “Salt”…
Cut strips about 1/2” thick and then cut those into “fry” shapes…
Place them carefully onto a parchment lined baking sheet and bake them at 350 degrees for approx. 12 minutes, or until they’re slightly golden and firm…
Make sure and serve them with some Caramel “Ketchup” for dipping…
There are plenty to go around for sharing..
Well…maybe~
Grab some for you first..just in case! ~Enjoy! 🙂
What a fun and interesting way to serve something special to simply anyone!! I love it!! I added some cinnamon to my filling and that gave it a nice little punch!
Yummm! Just made these for dessert and they are great. We cooked for an extra 5-10 mins until slightly browned on top. I did have some oozing, but no big deal. My husband was thinking if we put a couple little holes in the top crust of each fry to let the steam out, it might prevent the oozing? Also, if I made them for a party, I’d cut the pie sheets into thirds instead of in half since the “fries” were a little long. Thanks for the great recipe!
I haven’t made these yet, but I definitely plan to! I think the problem most people are having with the filling is that they’re judging by that big glob of apple in the middle, not by the rest of the dough.
Can u use homemade pie crust and homemade pie filling?
Of course..yum! 🙂
What a cute idea! It doesn’t look that fussy either. I’ll be bookmarking this for later, and I think I’ll try it both ways – one with the filling and one with the applesauce.
Hi, I know it’s weird, but where I live I can’t buy pie crust. How can I make it at home?
Oh my god I am drooling and my stomach is rumbling. This might just be the best looking way to have apple pie that I have ever seen!!
awesome idea! Afraid we don´t have this type of pie crust over here in Germany. Tried it with what you can buy over here, but it all went terribly wrong 🙁 Instead of being nice and crispy the fries were wishy-washy when I let them cool down. At first it seemed to work out, but in the end it didn´t…
I want to make this but your site won’t let me print just the recipe. Normally I can copy just the words and print. If that means having to go back and forth from room to room then it isn’t worth making. Pinning it is great but only when I want to refer back to it. Some of my friends don’t even have Pinterest. Any chance you can add a printable version at the bottom of all of your fantastic recipes?
What a silly girl, I just found out where your print function is. Thank you for including that!
Lol..no worries! Aldo, you can check the “remove images” box at the top of the print page if you don’t want pics. Click on text sections you’d like to remove as well…enjoy! 🙂
