Instructions
In a large skillet, melt the butter. Add the apples, brown sugar, cinnamon, salt, and nutmeg. Cook for 5-6 minutes or until apples are soft. Sprinkle the flour over and cook an additional minute. Remove from heat and cool.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Unroll pie crusts and cut out hearts. Roll out the scraps and cut out additional hearts. You should have 20 hearts total.
Beat an egg in a small bowl and set aside.
Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the apple filling in the center of 10 of the hearts. Place a lollipop stick in halfway up the apple filling (underneath). Using a pastry brush or your finger, brush the outside edge of each heart with the egg wash.
Top each with the remaining 10 pie crust heart. Using a fork, crimp the edges of the hearts sealing together. Brush tops of the pie crust hearts with egg wash.
Bake 14-16 minutes or until golden brown.
For the glaze: In a small bowl whisk together the powdered sugar and milk. Add more or less sugar to desired consistency. Using a fork drizzle over apple pie pops and top with sprinkles if using. Eat or wrap in bags and tie with a ribbon for a gift.
