- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, plus more for topping, optional

- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 3 cups peeled and chopped apples (preferably Fuji)
- 6 large square egg roll wrappers
- 18 sprays no-calorie butter spray
- Fat-free whipped topping, for topping, optional
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a medium nonstick pot on the stove, combine sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and salt with 1/2 cup cold water.
- Mix until the ingredients dissolve.
- Add apples and stir.
- Bring to medium-high heat and, stirring frequently, cook until apples have softened, about 7 to 10 minutes.
- Reduce heat to low and, stirring often, cook until thick and gooey, 1 to 2 additional minutes.
- Transfer to a bowl and set aside to cool.
- This is your pie filling.
- Prepare a large baking sheet by lining it with foil and/or spraying it with nonstick spray.
- Set aside.
- Place egg roll wrappers flat on a dry surface.
- Set out a small dish of water.
- Dip your finger into the water, and run it along all of the wrapper edges.
- Cook's Note: Repeat as needed while preparing your pockets, as it will help seal them.
- Starting 1/2 inch from the bottom, place about 1/3 cup pie filling along the bottom half of each wrapper, leaving a 1/2-inch border on the sides.
- Fold the top 1/2 of each wrapper over the filling, so that the top edge meets the bottom and the filling is encased with a border on 3 sides.
- Dab each border with water, and fold each inward about 1/4 inch to lightly seal.
- Press firmly along the borders with the prongs of a fork to seal completely.
- Carefully transfer to the baking sheet.
- Repeat this process with remaining wrappers and filling, leaving you with 6 pie-lets.
- Spray the top of each pocket with 3 sprays butter.
- Bake in the oven until the edges begin to brown, 15 to 18 minutes.
- Allow to cool for 5 minutes.
- Top with additional cinnamon and whipped topping, if using.
