I (heart) Pie
I mean, c’mon, I LOVE anything heart and of course, PIE!
So this morning I decided in honor of National Pie Day I would bake up something cute for dessert tonight.
What makes a Monday better than dessert, right?
Here was the problem at hand… WHAT kind of pie to make?
The recipe that Nordic gave was for raspberry pie. Now I would love that, but my oldest daughter hates ANYTHING with seeds. Raspberries were out.
I decided on a spiced peach pie filling. I used a can of peach pie filling, cut the peaches into smaller bites, and jazzed it up with 1/4 teaspoon of ginger and a pinch of cloves.
just a pinch will do ya!
I *almost* always make my own pie crust. But today I cheated and bought the Pillsbury roll out kind.
They worked just great!
I don’t know what I was more excited about, that cinnamon pie crust, or the actual pie itself!
I decided to do the same today with what I had left over.
I cut them out in heart shapes with my medium sized scalloped heart cookie cutter and brushed them with egg and dusted them with cinnamon and sugar.
hearts dusted and ready for the oven
The pies bake quickly, only about 15 minutes at 400 degrees.
They smelled HEAVENLY!!
warm from the oven
The hearts only baked about 9 minutes.
I love how they got all puffy!
I sampled a couple ( I made extra! ) with my coffee while they were warm!!
Serving them with Blue Bunny Cinnamon ice cream.
There is plenty of filling left over, so I think topping the ice cream with that is an outstanding idea!!
mmmmm yummy.
Heart Shaped Spiced Peach Pie Pockets
1 can peach pie filling, cut peaches into small pieces
1/4 teaspoon ginger
a pinch of ground cloves
2 Pillsbury roll out pie crusts
cinnamon sugar mixture
1 egg, beaten
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Combine pie filling with ginger and cloves and set aside.
Each pie crust will initially make 2 pockets. Cut pockets out as directed on pie press package.
With a pastry brush brush egg around edges of hearts.
Fill with 2 Tablespoons of filling.
Press together, remove and place on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper.
Brush tops of pies with egg, and sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar.
Bake pies approximately 15 minutes.
I made five pockets out of the 2 crusts, after rolling the leftover crust back out. I could have gotten six, but tonight I only need five.
I used the remaining to cut my heart shaped pie crusts out, and brushed them with egg and dusted them with cinnamon sugar mixture.
Bake the cinnamon pie pieces only about 9 minutes.
this was seriously, so. darn. good.
Happy Monday, and Happy National Pie Day, friends!!
Thanks for visiting, I just love having company over.
Come back soon!
