Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to the temperature indicated on the pie crust package, typically around 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, blend the chopped apples, caramel sauce, ground cinnamon, and 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar until well combined.
  3. Unroll one pie crust onto a lightly floured surface and roll it slightly thinner.
  4. Cut out circles from the rolled crust using a round cutter (about 4 inches in diameter).
  5. Place a tablespoon of the apple mixture in the center of each crust circle.
  6. Fold each circle over to create a half-moon shape and crimp edges to seal.
  7. If using, roll out the second crust and cut out fun Halloween shapes to place on top of each pie.
  8. Whisk together the egg and water, then brush over each hand pie.
  9. Transfer the pies to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake until golden brown, about 15-20 minutes.
  10. Let the hand pies cool on a wire rack and optionally drizzle with extra caramel before serving.
