Preheat the oven at 180 degrees.
Flour flour over a muffin tray (this is to stop the pastry sticking).
Peel & grate the apples. Mix all the first 7 ingredients into a large bowl.
Using the rim of a mug, cut out 12 large circles & place them in the baking tray.
Fill the pastry cases with the apple & cinnamon mixture.
Using the rim of a glass, cut out 12 small circles & place these lids over the pastries.
Using a knife, push the edges of the pastry cases together (to seal the pastry).
Spread a thin layer of butter of the top as a glaze (Optional)
Cook in the oven until golden (15-20 minutes)
