Each bite of these pies has the perfectly tart, sweet, creamy and flakey  flavor you get from regular pie, just baked into bite-size crusts. These are easy to eat, bake and clean up, so put down that plate and fork and gobble up a few of these instead. Plus, everything served in mini form just tastes better, it’s a scientific fact.

Description

An easy, bite-size form of cherry pie!


Ingredients

Scale
  • For the crust:
  • 2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons white sugar
  • Dash of salt
  • 2 sticks of butter
  • 68 tablespoons ice water
  • For the filling:
  • 8 ounces all natural, organic cherry pie filling

Instructions

  1. To make the crust, combine the flour, salt, and sugar in a food processor; pulse to mix. Add butter and pulse on low until mixture resembles coarse meal (or sand). Add the ice water 1 Tbsp at a time, pulsing until mixture just begins to moisten.
  2. Grease a hard surface and put dough onto it. With floured hands, knead the dough about 3 times. Then, carefully shape the dough into two disks. Cover with saran wrap and chill for at least 8 hours.
  3. Once dough has chilled, pre-heat the oven to 425 degrees F. Liberally grease a muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
  4. Using a floured rolling pin, roll the dough to about 1/4 inch thickness. Using a cookie cutter cut out dough circles. You want enough dough to fill the entire muffin cavity with some overhang.
  5. Fit dough into the cavities. Carefully spoon about 1 1/2 tablespoon of cherry pie filling into each dough cavity.
  6. Bake for about 11 minutes, or until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbly. Let chill for at least an hour and then serve with whipped cream!
