Here’s a simple recipe for cherry pie bites that you can try:
Ingredients:
- 1 package of refrigerated pie crusts (2 crusts)
- 1 can (21 oz) of cherry pie filling
- 1 egg (for egg wash)
- 1 tablespoon of water (for egg wash)
- Granulated sugar (for sprinkling, optional)
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Roll out the pie crusts on a lightly floured surface. Using a cookie cutter or a small glass, cut out circles from the pie crusts.
- Place half of the pie crust circles onto the prepared baking sheet. Spoon a small amount of cherry pie filling onto each circle, leaving a small border around the edges.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to create an egg wash. Brush the edges of the pie crust circles with the egg wash.
- Place the remaining pie crust circles on top of the cherry filling, pressing down the edges to seal. You can use a fork to crimp the edges if desired.
- Cut a small slit or poke a few holes in the top of each pie bite to allow steam to escape while baking.
- Brush the tops of the pie bites with the remaining egg wash and sprinkle with granulated sugar if desired.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the pie crust is golden brown.
- Allow the cherry pie bites to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
