Mini Cherry Pies

For these adorable little pies, I used store bought pie crust but if you to make a scratch one from scratch you can use this recipe. You just need to roll out the crust, cut the 3 ½ inch circles and press them in well-greased muffin tin cavities, then scoop some cherry pie filling into each one. From the second  pie crust you should cut 1/3 inch strips and make the lattice top like for the regular pie, sprinkle some sugar and pop them in the oven for about 25-30 minutes or until they gets nice golden tops.

These Mini Cherry Pies turned out to be adorable. They were a huge hit at the fair and my little chef quickly and easily sold his pies and earn money for his group in kindergarten.
