Mini Apple Pies in Wonton Wrappers at only 3 weight watchers points for 4 of them. All the deliciousness but none of the guilt.
Who ever said that you can’t have your cake and eat it too? Well just because I’m on weight watchers now, doesn’t mean I can’t treat myself to something delicious and sweet. I still get my sweet tooth every once in a while and well simply put, we just need to make better and healthier choices. So these mini apple pies are so yummy and they just hit the spot. And you know what the best part of it all is? 4 of these little apple pies have only 3 points!
We all know how good apples are for you and let’s face it, an apple a day keeps the doctor away. 🙂 And this way makes eating apples a pleasure.
I love wonton wrappers because there are so few calories in them and they are very versatile. You can pretty much fill them with anything.
I don’t really have step by step pictures for this recipe because it was just too simple to make. The hardest part was really just peeling and cutting the apples.
Prepare a muffin tray by spraying each muffin cup with cooking spray then lay a wonton wrapper in each muffin cup.
In a sauce pan you just add the water, sugar, cinnamon, vanilla and flour and whisk over medium heat until mixture thickens as the flour cooks. Add the apples to the sauce pan and continue cooking for another 10 minutes until the apples are soft. Then simply drop a tablespoonful of the apple mixture in each muffin cup.
Bake in a preheated 375 F degree oven for about 10 minutes, or until the wonton wrappers begin to get brown. Serve and enjoy, you could probably add some whipped cream to them but I didn’t want the extra calories, this was good enough and like I said it hit the spot.

Looks awesome….but I am always worried I will buy the wrong apples. What is your suggestion for the brand of apple….read all the way thru the comments…and didn’t see that answer….so thought I would ask. Thanks!
I prefer Granny Smith or Pink Lady.
Easy to make. However, I found the filling a little dry. More water next time. I also added some lemon juice for a little zip
Can you make these ahead and freeze them?
For sure! I would undercook them a bit so that when you reheat them in the oven they become perfect and golden brown.
Hi. I froze some and now I want to reheat them. Do I use the same temp 375 and do I thaw them or just heat them frozen? How long should I heat them? These are so delicious. I hope they taste as good as they did the first time around.
If you heat straight front he freezer I’d do 350 and add an extra 5 minutes on. You can add more time if need be – keep an eye on them. Enjoy!
