3. Roll Out Pie Crust: On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pie crusts. Use a round cookie cutter (about 2 inches in diameter) to cut out circles of dough. ๐Ÿฐ

4. Assemble Bites: Place a small spoonful of the apple mixture in the center of each dough circle. Fold the dough over to create a half-moon shape and press the edges to seal. You can use a fork to crimp the edges for a decorative touch. ๐Ÿฅง
