Mini Berry Pies

Mini Berry Pies

Baked in single-serving disposable tins, these desserts are small, but the flavors inside-blueberry and raspberry-are big. The heart cutout (made with a cookie cutter) provides a peek at the filling. Be sure to send along napkins and plastic forks.

  • Yield Makes 7

Ingredients

    • 1 package (15 ounces) refrigerated piecrusts
    • 6 ounces raspberries
    • 12 ounces blueberries
    • 4 teaspoons cornstarch
    • 1/4 cup sugar, plus more for sprinkling
    • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
    • 1 large egg

Directions

  1. Unfold piecrusts on work surface. Using top of a 3-inch aluminum pie tin as a template, add 1/4 inch all around and use a knife to cut out seven rounds. Make a vent in center of each round with a 1/2-inch heart-shape cutter. Set crusts aside.
  2. Stir together berries, cornstarch, sugar, and lemon juice in a medium bowl. Divide mixture among seven 3-inch aluminum pie tins. Top each with a crust; use fingers to crimp sides so they stop just before edge of tin. Beat egg with 1 teaspoon water. Brush crusts lightly with egg wash; sprinkle with sugar. Freeze pies 20 minutes.
  3. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Bake until golden and juices are bubbling, about 25 minutes. Let cool completely on a wire rack.
