Have you ever craved pie, but you just wanted a piece or two? Or you want a flavor of pie that someone in your family doesn't? Well, I have the solution for you! I decided to make mini cherry pies that I baked in a cupcake pan and they were super easy and tasty. I had leftover homemade pie crust from Thanksgiving that I used, but you could also use store bought crust. You could also choose any filling that you wanted, but I just happened to have cherry filling on hand. The only ingredients that you will need to buy are pie crust and pie filling. This is a perfect snack for a night when you have your friends over and everyone is in the mood for pie of different flavors or just a midnight craving! My mom came up with the idea and we guessed on the baking amount.
Ingredients:
- Pie crust
- Cherry Pie filling
- egg whites (optional for dusting crust)
- cup for cutting out crust circles
- cinnamon and sugar (optional for dusting crust)
- cupcake pan
- oil for greasing pan
Procedure:
- grease the cupcake pan
- use a cup to cut out circle of crust
- pre-heat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit
- pour cherry pie filling into the crust 3/4 of the way full
- cut four thin slices of crust and cross them over the cherry filling
- paint on the egg whites over the top of the crust
- sprinkle the crust with cinnamon and sugar
- place the pan in the oven
- set timer for 22 minutes
- after 22 minutes, cool for five minutes and serve... ENJOY!
