This is for when you have enough left over pie dough to fill a mini pie, but not enough for a top. Sometimes we make pigs in blanket, which is pie dough rolled out, butter smeared on top, then cinnamon and sugar sprinkled over and rolled. Bake for 20 minutes at 375. My kids love extra cookies, but sometimes I prefer to make a mini pie.
Ingredients:
* 2 cups mixed berries (raspberry and blueberries, or blackberries)
* 1/2 teaspoon allspice
* 1 Tablespoon cornstarch
* 1/3 cup sugar
If working with fresh berries, put into a small pot and cook on the stove with all ingredients for 1-2 minutes, this helps juice up the berries. If frozen, then just mix above ingredients in a bowl.
Roll out pie crust, place into mini pie plate, trim edges, add filling. Sprinkle streusel on top. I usually have extra in the freezer because I make it in a large batch. Bake at 375 for 30-45 minutes. Put a pan under the pie plate in case of overspill so it doesn't go onto the oven floor.
