Mini Cherry Pies image

I used to always make a traditional cherry pie and there would always be half a pie left over after serving. I love this mini version because I can make just two at a time. Perfect for me and my husband when we are eating dinner together.

Time 1h15m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 pastry for a 9 inch single crust pie
1 (15 ounce) can pitted sour cherries, drained
2 tablespoons quick-cooking tapioca
½ cup white sugar
⅛ teaspoon almond extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Unroll the pie crusts, and cut 2 6-inch rounds from the dough; cut the remaining dough into 1/8-inch strips for a lattice crust. Fit the rounds into 2 5-inch mini pie dishes.
  • In a bowl, stir together the cherries, tapioca, sugar, and almond extract; let the filling stand for 5 minutes to soften the tapioca. Stir the filling again, and spoon into the pie shells. Use the strips to weave a lattice crust on each pie, and pinch the crusts together.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the crusts are golden brown and the filling is bubbling and thickened, about 30 minutes. Allow to cool before serving.

These pies are the perfect way to use up leftover cherries. I always have a few extra cherries after I make cherry pie filling, and these pies are a great way to use them up.

These pies are the perfect size for a quick snack or dessert. I love that I can just pop one in the oven and have a warm, delicious pie in minutes.

I added a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top of each pie and it was the perfect finishing touch.

I used fresh cherries from my backyard and they made these pies extra special. The filling was so flavorful and juicy.

I'm not a big fan of cherry pie, but these mini pies were delicious! The crust was especially good.

These mini cherry pies were a hit at my last party! The filling was sweet and tangy, and the crust was flaky and golden brown. I'll definitely be making these again.
