How to make a McDonald's Apple Pie - Copycat McDonald's Apple Pie

Hi, this is my version of the classic McDonald’s fried apple pie. You can use pie crust or puff pastry for this recipe.
Ingredients:
1 apple
1 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
1 Tbsp butter
2 Tbsp brown sugar
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp allspice
1/4 tsp nutmeg
Lemon zest (optional)
Vegetable oil
Puff pastry or pie crust
1 tsp cornstarch (optional)
1 Tbs hot water (optional)
Extra sugar (optional)

Method:
Peal and chop the apples into squares. I then let the apples soak in a bowl of water with a Tbs of lemon juice to help keep the color. Drain apples then pour them into a fry pan and add the sugar, spices, and butter. I also added some lemon zest which is total optional. Cook until tender, for around 10 minutes, then let the apple filling cool. If you want the apples to have a gooey syrup, while cooking them, dissolve the cornstarch in a Tbs of hot water then mix the it into the apple mixture. Add a bit more sugar to the filling to form a thick syrup.

An apple pie is 11cm x 5cm so take that into consideration when cutting the shape out of the pastry to pie crust. Lay the pastry on parchment paper then cover one side with apples filling. Brush the edges with water before folding the top half over, then crimp the edges with a fork to firmly seal the filling inside.

Freeze until needed.

Fry the frozen apple pie in oil (350°F) for 3-4 minutes or until golden brown, flipping it halfway so both sides are golden brown..

Enjoy!
