Best 4 Muffin Tin Ice Cream Pies Recipes

MUFFIN TIN MINI APPLE PIES

Steps:

• In the bowl of a food processor, combine the flour, rosemary (optional), sugar and salt. Pulse just until combined then add the cubed butter and pulse until the mixture resembles wet sand.
• With the food processor running, slowly stream in the ice water a few tablespoons at a time until the dough comes together into a cohesive ball.
• Arrange a piece of plastic wrap on your work surface then transfer the dough into the center and wrap it up securely. Refrigerate the dough for 30 minutes.
• Lightly flour your work surface.
• Roll out the dough until it is 1/4-inch thick. Using a 4-inch cookie cutter (or a glass), cut out as many circles as you can. Re-roll the dough and cut out additional circles until you have a total of 12. Arrange each circle in a muffin tin cup, pressing it down and up the edges. Keep any dough scraps for the top lattice or decorations.
• Preheat the oven to 425°F.
• In a large bowl, stir together the diced apples, white sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon and flour.
• Divide the mixture among the muffin tins. Top or each pie with a woven lattice or cut-out shapes.
• Brush the tops of the pies with the egg wash then sprinkle them with sanding sugar (optional).
• Bake the pies until they are golden brown, 16 to 18 minutes.
• Remove the pies from the oven and let them cool completely in the muffin tin.
• Using a sharp knife, run it around the edges of each pie to help release them then serve.

PATRIOTIC HAND PIE ICE CREAM SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment.
• Whisk together the raspberry jam, 1 tablespoon of the lemon juice and 1 1/2 teaspoons of the cornstarch in a medium bowl until smooth. Fold in the raspberries. Whisk together the blueberry jam, remaining 1 tablespoon lemon juice and remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch in another medium bowl until smooth. Fold in the blueberries. Set both fillings aside.
• Unroll 2 pie crusts and place them on top of each other. Roll the dough out to a 14-by-15-inch rectangle. Place the dough over the top of a 12-cup muffin tin, making sure all of the holes are covered and some of the dough drapes over the sides. Roll out the remaining 2 pie crusts to a 14-by-15-inch rectangle and set aside (do not place over the muffin tin).
• Using the muffin tin holes as a guide, spoon 1 tablespoon of raspberry filling in the center of 6 holes. Spoon 1 tablespoon of blueberry filling in the center of the remaining 6 holes. Whisk the egg with 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl. Brush the edges of the dough and the lines between the filling with the egg wash. Place the other rectangle of dough on top and gently press the edges to adhere the dough pieces together.
• Place a cutting board on top of the dough on the muffin tin and flip it over so the dough is now on the cutting board. Trim the edges so you have 1 large rectangle with distinct corners. Use the tines of a fork to crimp the border. Cut the dough into 12 square pies--6 raspberry and 6 blueberry. Crimp the uncrimped sides.
• Put the pies on the prepared baking sheets and brush the tops with the egg wash. Cut small slits in the top of each and sprinkle with the turbinado sugar. Bake until the pies are golden brown and some of the filling is bubbling through the slits, 15 to 17 minutes. Let cool completely on the baking sheets, about 30 minutes.
• Use a sharp knife to make an incision in the cardboard of the ice cream pints from the top to the bottom. Slice each pint horizontally into four 1-inch discs and remove the cardboard. Reserve 2 of the ice cream discs for another use. Using the 6 remaining ice cream discs, sandwich 1 disc between 1 raspberry pie and 1 blueberry pie; repeat with the discs and pies.

MIXED MINI PIES

Steps:

• For the pie crusts: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Coat a 12-cup muffin pan with baking spray.
• Unroll the pie crusts on a clean surface. Cut 6 circles from each crust (12 total) with a 3 1/2-inch plain-edged round cutter. Press a circle of dough into each of the 12 cups of the muffin pan, lightly pressing the dough up the sides (they will not reach the tops of the cups). These will be your pie crusts.
• Poke the bottom of 4 of the pie crusts with a fork and place cupcake liners into the poked crust cups only. Fill each liner with 2 tablespoons uncooked rice. Refrigerate the pan while you prepare the fillings.
• For the crumble topping: Mix together the flour, oats and brown sugar in a small bowl. Stir in the melted butter until well combined. Set aside until ready to use.
• For the fillings: Begin filling the dough cups. (The 4 cups with the cupcake liners filled with uncooked rice will remain that way during the bake and will be filled after the bake.) Mix together the cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla and salt in a small bowl until well combined. Divide the cream cheese mixture between 2 of the empty dough cups. Divide the cherry pie filling between 2 of the remaining empty dough cups. Divide the blueberry pie filling between 2 of the remaining empty dough cups. Divide the grape jam between the remaining 2 empty dough cups.
• Mix half of the crumble topping with the lemon zest in a bowl. Divide the mixture over the top of the 2 pie dough cups filled with the blueberry pie filling to make blueberry lemon crumble pies. Mix the remaining crumble topping with the crushed peanuts in a bowl. Divide the mixture over the top of the 2 pie dough cups filled with the grape jam.
• Bake the pies: Transfer the pan to the oven and bake until the crumbs on the 4 crumb-topped pies are golden, about 15 minutes. Allow to cool completely.
• Finish the pies: Remove the cupcake liners filled with rice from the 4 baked and unfilled crusts.
• For the strawberry cream pies: Toss the diced strawberries with the granulated sugar and a splash of vanilla in a small bowl. Divide the mixture between the 2 pies filled with the cream cheese mixture. Drizzle the pies with the caramel sauce.
• For the cherry pies: Divide the toasted almonds over the 2 pies filled with the cherry filling. Microwave the white chocolate and coconut oil together in a microwave-safe bowl for 15 seconds or until warm. Stir well, then drizzle evenly over the 2 pies. Top the center of each pie with a bit of whipped cream.
• For the PB and J pies: Microwave the peanut butter and coconut oil together in a microwave-safe bowl for 15 seconds or until warm. Stir well, then drizzle evenly over the 2 pies filled with the grape jam and peanut-crumble topping.
• For the lemon raspberry pies: Divide the lemon curd between 2 of the empty baked pie crusts. Top each pie with 3 raspberries. Dust each pie with a bit of powdered sugar and finish with a mint leaf.
• For the s'mores pies: Divide the hazelnut spread between the last 2 empty baked pie crusts. Mix the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter together in a small bowl. Sprinkle half of the mixture over each pie. Cut the marshmallow in half crosswise. Top each pie with one half of the marshmallow. Using a kitchen blowtorch (brulee torch), toast each piece of marshmallow to the desired level of toasted-ness.
• Transfer the pies to a cake stand or platter and enjoy!
