Pull Apart Pie Bites
A Holiday Delight. Put this on your Thanksgiving Pie table. The oohs and ahs will start.
Equipment
- pie plate or springform pan
Ingredients
- 1 (2 pk) refrigerated pie dough
- 1 cup pie fillings (any flavors)
- 1 egg beaten
Instructions
- Preheat oven to the temperature noted on refrigerated pie dough package. Mine was set for 425 degrees.
- Place pie dough package onto countertop 15 minutes before rolling out to take the chill off and for ease of rolling.
- For ease of removal of pie from the pie plate, cut a circle of parchment to fit bottom of pie plate.
- Lay pie dough onto a lightly floured work surface. Roll out to about double it's size.NOTE: one pie will use 2 of the refrigerated pie doughs.
- Cut 3" circles using a biscuit cutter, cookie cutter, or the rim of a glass.
- Place 1-2 tsp of pie filling into center of cut dough circle. Pinch the ends of the dough to hold the filling. Should look like an open pocket. NOTE: view video down below for visual instructions.
- Place the pockets all along the outer edge of pie plate with one flavor. Keep making pockets with whatever choice of pie fillings you wish. NOTE: do not squish the pockets into each other. Place them next to each other without pushing them into each other. This will make the pockets easier to pull apart.
- Brush the beaten egg on the edges of the pie dough to give it a nice golden color to the crust.
- Bake per instructions on the pie crust package to bake a pie. Mine was in for 45 minutes.NOTE: if you feel that the crust is golden brown before time is up, lay a sheet of foil over the pie plate to keep the crust from browning any more. This should happen around the 25-30 minute mark.
- Pull pie out of oven. Pull a piece of the parchment under the pie to help move the pie bites onto a serving plate. Let cool. Pull pieces from each other. Place a spoon next to pie to aid in helping remove pieces, if needed.
