Mini Cherry Pies

For these adorable little pies, I used store bought pie crust but if you to make a scratch one from scratch you can use this recipe. You just need to roll out the crust, cut the 3 � inch circles and press them in well-greased muffin tin cavities, then scoop some cherry pie filling into each one. 

From the second pie crust you should cut 1/3 inch strips and make the lattice top like for the regular pie, sprinkle some sugar and pop them in the oven for about 25-30 minutes or until they gets nice golden tops.

These Mini Cherry Pies turned out to be adorable. They were a huge hit at the fair and my little chef quickly and easily sold his pies and earn money for his group in kindergarten.

Ingredients :

• 1 package (2 9?) store-bought pie crust
• 2 cups cherry pie filling
• 1 egg white-slightly beaten
• sugar for sprinkling

Instructions :

1. Preheat oven to 350 F, grease muffin tin and set aside ( you will need 10-11 cups )
2. Unroll one crust onto a flat surface and using a cookie cutter or rim of a glass/bowl cut 3 1/2 � 4? circles.
3. Place each circle into tin cavity and press into the bottom and up the sides.
4. Fill with cherry pie filling about 2/3 to the top.
5. To make a lattice crust, using a knife or pizza cutter cut thin strips of dough (about 1/4-1/3 inch), then lace together to form a lattice. Press down slightly around the edges and trim the excess with a knife.
