Apple Spice Hand Pies
    In a medium bowl, mix 3 peeled, cored, and diced apples, 1 ⁄ 2 teaspoon cinnamon, 1 ⁄ 4 teaspoon nutmeg, 1 ⁄ 3 cup brown sugar. Mix and roll out pastry as directed in the following recipe steps. Cut pastry into 4–6 circles using a cookie cutter. Place 2 tablespoons of the apple filling on one side of each circle, leaving 1 ⁄ 2 . Fold the other half of the dough over the filling and crimp the edges closed with a fork. Brush a little melted butter or coconut oil on top of each pie and sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar. Bake 15–20 minutes until pies are golden-brown. Allow to cool 10–15 minutes before eating.
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a large cookie sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk the almond flour, baking soda, and sea salt. Cut in the butter or coconut oil with a pastry blender, until it resembles small peas throughout the mixture. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the honey and eggs. Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until you have a stiff dough.
Shape the dough into two large balls. Refrigerate the balls 10–15 minutes before using. Sprinkle additional blanched almond flour onto the parchment paper or plastic wrap to help keep the dough from sticking. Place the dough on a floured surface. Top with a sheet of parchment paper or plastic wrap and roll the dough out into a 12" circle. Using a pizza cutter, cut into eight triangles.
Roll up the triangles starting from the wide end to the point, so they look like crescent rolls. Place each roll about 2" apart on baking sheet. If desired, brush the rolls with melted butter or coconut oil.
Bake for 12–15 minutes until golden brown and slightly puffy.
