Ingredients
The following ingredients have 20 Servings
- 10-12 medium fresh strawberries (chopped into small pieces)
- 2 tablespoons raw honey
- ½ tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- ½ tablespoon tapioca starch (Note 1)
- 2 9-inch pie crusts (Note 2)
- 1 egg (beaten)
- 2 tablespoons Turbinado sugar (optional)
- 24-cup mini muffin pan
- Round cookie cutter set
- Pastry brush
Instruction
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Spray mini muffin pan with a cooking spray.
- In a small bowl, combine chopped strawberries, honey, lemon juice and tapioca starch.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pie dough into 1/8-inch thin disk. (If you're using store-bought pie crust, then simply roll it out.) Using 3-inch cookie round cutter, cut out 20 circles. Gather the scraps and roll out a thin disk. Now, using 2-inch round cookie cutter, cut out 20 circles.
- Mold 3-inch pie crusts into mini muffin cups. Fill each pie with 1 teaspoon of strawberries.
- Brush on beaten egg around the pie crust edges and place 2-inch pie circles.
- Using a fork, press the edges of the pie together. And brush the tops of each pie with beaten egg.
- Make a small slit on each pie and sprinkle some turbinado sugar, if desired.
- Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Cool the pies in the pan for about 30 minutes. Then remove from pan and serve with whipped cream on the side.
