Servings: 9
Ingredients
- 2 Sheets Store Bought Pie Crust (Shortcrust Pastry if in the UK)
- 2 Cups (470 g) Cherry Pie Filling
- 1 (1) Large Egg Optional
- 3 tbsp (3 tbsp) Powdered Sugar Optional
Instructions
- Line a large baking tray.
- Remove the pie crust from the refrigerator. Roll flat and cut out about 18 hearts using a cookie cutter. Place 9 of these hearts onto the lined baking tray. On the other 9, score a small X (cross) in the middle).
- Top each of the hearts on the baking sheet, add 1-2 teaspoons of the cherry pie filling. Don't overfill, and leave some space at the edges.
- Top the pies with the remaining 9 hearts. Crimp the edges to seal using a fork, then brush with beaten egg. Place in the refrigerator 10 minutes or so, just while the oven preheats.
- Preheat oven to 400℉/200℃.
- Bake 16-17 minutes - until the pies are golden brown! Remove and let cool on a wire rack - dust with powdered sugar for a little extra sparkle!
