Mini Pies

My daughter's birthday party was this weekend, and I wanted to do some fun and yummy party favors for the adults that were coming to the party. 

We ended up making some pies with homemade strawberry jam.  I'll be posting the homemade strawberry jam recipe soon.

Ingredients
Frozen rolled up pie crust or make your own dough. 
Any filling you wish, we used homemade strawberry/berry jam, chocolate chips & bananas. 

Directions

Cut your pie dough to your desired shapes with cookie cutters.  We did castles & crowns. 



Place the dough on a sheet of parchment paper on top of a cookie sheet. Fill with your desired filling. Be sure to not put too much, otherwise - the filling will overflow.

Here's a pic of our desired strawberry jam.


Pinch the edges to seal the edges.  You can use a fork or take lollipop sticks and pinch the edges. Brush egg white wash on top of the pies to give it a nice toasty color when they're placed in the oven.


Bake at 375 degrees for 12 minutes, and place on a cooling rack to cool.  Your pies should have a nice toasty color.


Let cool and wrap in small treat bags & decorate accordingly.
