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.

The crust on my pies was a bit dry. I think I rolled it out too thin. Next time I'll be sure to roll it out thicker.

These pies are a bit too sweet for my taste. I would reduce the amount of sugar in the filling next time.

I'm not a fan of cherries, but I loved these pies. The filling is sweet and tart, and the crust is flaky and buttery.

I used frozen cherries in my pies and they worked perfectly. I just thawed them before using.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I substituted the almond extract for vanilla extract. The pies still turned out great!

These pies are so cute and perfect for a party or potluck. They're also a great way to use up leftover cherries.

These mini cherry pies were a hit at my last dinner party! The flaky crust and sweet filling were perfect. I'll definitely be making them again.
