I could have made one big pie and be done in 2 minutes but Nooo! I like making it difficult for myself…15 minutes individually lining muffin pans with pie crust. Yes, yes, I do have a life. But it’s a life that enjoys being in the kitchen. Besides, I think this cute mini eggpie one-servings will present better on a dessert table than messy, have-to-slice pies and they are going to join THE MINI PIE REVOLUTION hosted by Karyn and Anne to prove my point!

Mini Eggpies (Custard Pies)

Makes 24 Mini Egg Pies

Ingredients

Pie Crust

1 cup (8 oz) butter, slightly softened
4 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup iced water
1 tsp salt
2 tsp granulated sugar

Filling
1 can (10 oz) condensed milk
1 can (12 oz) evaporated milk
4 egg yolks

Procedure

Cut butter into pieces. Add in flour, sugar and salt. Using hands or two forks, combine until mixture turns to ”pea-sized” pebbles. Add in water and continue to gently mix until a crumbly dough forms.

Divide dough into 24 balls and flatten into rounds of crust sheets. Grease two 12-hole muffin tin pans with non-stick spray. Line muffin holes with pie crust rounds. Trim edges.

Mix filling ingredients together. Pour or spoon into prepared muffin-sized crusts until 3/4 full. Bake at 375 F for 20 minutes, or until middle is set and toothpick inserted comes out clean.

    Can I used the Pillsbury refrigerated pie crusts? Will it taste the same?

    Carmina,

    Although I haven’t personally tried it, I don’t see any reason why it wouldn’t. Happy experimenting! Please come back and share your experience with the recipe!

    Don’t have an oven at home (used to have one when I lived with my parents). Can I use the turbo broiler or oven toaster instead?

    Thanks!

    Jhoanne,

    I apologize for the oversight. Evap is 12 oz can and 10 oz for condensed milk. Corrected the ingredients. Thanks.

    Tess,

    I am sorry but I’ve never tried this other than in the oven.
