To our mothers and grandmothers,
who taught us how sweet life can be.

INTRODUCTION
In the fall of 2009, we were discussing the approaching holidays over pumpkin beers when the subject of baking came up. We agreed there was a void in the baked goods business in the Pacific Northwest: No one makes pies anymore.
Its understandable. Pies are intimidating, and theyre something Grandma makes with an ancient recipe and a hundred years of trial and error. A great crust can be tricky, and the filling must be perfect. We were also interested in the emerging mini desserts movement. Cupcakes, scones, and cookies had all been miniaturized, and we decided it was time for pie to get its day in the tiny sun. With a toast and a handshake, Mini Empire Bakery was born and pie miniaturization began.
No dessert has more range than pie. From arriving at a picnic with a fresh batch of pink lemonade pies to curling up with a warm and comforting raspberry rhubarb whiskey pie la mode, theres a perfect pie for every occasion. This delightful little book contains 25 recipes for both traditional and innovative mini pies. We cover everything from a variety of pie crusts and fillings to tools and techniques. These mini pies are great for parties, potlucks, or any other event. They make excellent party favors, thank-you gifts, and birthday presents.
We live for pie and want to remove the intimidation that surrounds baking it. Our goal is to make it accessible and easy for everyone. Weve also included recipes for bakers with vegan and gluten-free dietary restrictions.
Raised in the South and the Midwest, weve both had a passion for baking from a very young age. Our mothers and grandmothers trained us to help in the kitchen as soon as we could walk. From those beginnings developed a lifelong interest. Baking is love. We bake for those that we cherish. Baking is taking time, making effort, and exercising precision to create treats for others. And its all worth it. A gift in its truest form.
We hope that this book enables you to develop new baking skills, try new flavors, and explore the wonderful world of mini pies.

Sweetest regards,
Christy Beaver and
Morgan Greenseth
PIE CRUSTS
The crust can make or break a pie. It needs to be just the right combination of flaky, crumbly, salty, and sweet. Luckily for you, weve already figured out how to achieve a heavenly crust for your perfect pie. (Youre welcome.)
PIE CRUST BASICS
Pie crust rolls out best when the dough is slightly cooler than room temperature. If it seems too firm, let it sit on the counter a bit before you roll it. The dough should be pliable and slightly elastic.
To roll out your crust, it is essential that you have a generous amount of flour on both your work surface and your rolling pin.

To cut the crusts for our mini pies, we use a 4-inch-diameter tart cutter with fluted edges, but any 4-inch round cookie cutter can be used.

Our mini pies are made in muffin tins. To shape the crust, place it over a well in the muffin tin and very gently press down in the center until its almost touching the pan bottom. Then gently press the crust against the sides of the well. Press lightly against the bottom and sides to make sure the crust is formed perfectly to the pan. Check for tears or holesif you find one, you can patch it by squeezing the dough back together to cover the gap. If your pan has been greased adequately, this shouldnt create a problem.

For crusts that are baked before being filled, use this technique:
Cut out the crusts as usual. Working on a floured surface, tap around the edge of each crust with the heel of your hand to stretch it slightly.

When you shape the crust into the muffin tin, fold the stretched edges out over the horizontal surface of the pan top. This will keep the crust from shrinking during baking, leaving more room for delicious filling.

Gently pierce the bottom of the crust with a fork to keep large bubbles from forming, which would also cut down on your filling capacity.
