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.

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
Jo says
Can you make these ahead and freeze them?
Nicole Beaulieu says
For sure! I would undercook them a bit so that when you reheat them in the oven they become perfect and golden brown.
Glenna in Arizona says
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.
Jo Cooks Team says
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!
Tab says
I am not sure where you are getting your nutritional information from? There is no way that 2 of these are 259 cals!!
I just calculated all the ingredients and divided by 12 and got 41.99 cals for 1 and 83.98 for 2!
Nicole Beaulieu says
We use a plugin that calculates the calories for us, I just ran the plugin again and have 116 cal for 2 of them, that seems more accurate.
Benita says
These are so easily manipulated to a person’s personal taste. Many recipes like this one.
One question that I have, which was neglected when another person asked is, how do you prevent the bottom from being soggy????? Thanks from both of us.
Nabil says
One way to keep the bottom crispy is to bake the wonton wrappers for a bit, then fill them to finish baking? This is just a guess, but thanks for the heads up about the soggy bottom. The recipe looks delicious!
Orith Ackerman says
Made these tonight with my six year old. It was tasty and easy and great to have her help me in the kitchen. Great idea.
Joanna Cismaru says
That’s great, so glad you guys liked these!
Barb says
Hi Jo, another question: why are the bottoms of these tarts soggy?
TIA
Barb says
HI Jo,
Can you please tell me how to store these? In an air tight container or in the fridge?
Thank you in advance
jo says
I would store them in an airtight container IN the fridge.
Joanne says
Hi Jo, This is a great idea but when I plugged the nutritional info from your post into the Weight Watchers calculator, the points came out to 7 per serving of 2 mini pies. This actually makes more sense with 259 calories and 55.7g of carbs. Please explain. Thanks.
jo says
Hi Joanne,
It’s quite possible, this was calculated a few years ago with the old point system. I would go with whatever the new points plus calculator says, I just calculated it and you’re right, it’s 7 points plus per serving. Updated the recipe as well.
Loly says
Muffin pan…..is this the tiny muffin pan or the larger muffin pan. Thanks!
jo says
It’s a regular muffin pan, not the jumbo one, but not the tiny ones cupcakes. Each cup is about 2 inches in diameter.
Nana says
I love the idea of the wonton shells and can see lots of possibilities but i have a question about the store purchased wontons. How can I store them. They come with like 50 in a package and I live alone. I tried to freeze them and they would not separate without breaking up. Can someone give me tip on how to save the remainder of a package?
sue rooney says
thanks, do you think i could bake tomorrow and they would crisp up if i warmed them. i make all sorts of chicken, etc. wontons and we alway re warm the leftovers, thanks
jo says
They might crisp up a bit if you reheat them in the oven, though I’ve just reheated them in the microwave.
sue rooney says
we are on weight watchers and i will be making these for thanksgiving. can i make ahead of time as the oven will be tied up all wed night and thurs. thanks
jo says
You could, I’ve refrigerated mine for a day and they were fine, though not as crispy. Since they only take 10 min to bake, perhaps you could bake them right before serving if the oven is free and prepare them the day before.
Janice says
Made these in apple & cherry for my church luncheon. They are so easy, & good. Everyone enjoyed them. I will be making these with other fillings for other events.
jo says
So happy to hear this! 🙂
Noel says
How long do they last in a sealed container? Do you keep them in the fridge or at room temp? Do they eventually get soggy?
jo says
I kept them in the fridge and they will get a bit soggy, but I kept them in the fridge for a couple days and they were still not too bad. Of course they’re the best when they’re fresh.
mjskit says
What a clever idea! I love these little bites of apple pie. Perfect! You’re right – I wouldn’t feel guilty eating these at all. 🙂
Donalyn says
Love this idea Jo – perfect for those of us watching what we ate – thanks for sharing it!
Anna says
I love minis…Mini pies are no exception. I realized the reason I love miniatures is that they remind me of the value of living life in moderation. A little dose of this and that lets you taste the flavors without going overboard, without overindulging.
These mini apple pies are just perfect! In size and in taste!
jo says
Absolutely Anna, you are so right. I came home from work on Friday had my dinner and I had a couple of these mini apple pies, and I can’t tell you how flavorful they were, and just enough so make me feel satisfied. But they were so delicious, I love them cold, tasted just like I had a slice of apple pie.
