Mini Pumpkin Pies
My favorite time of year is when it’s just starting to get cool (well not much in Florida anyways) and stores have all of their pumpkin/fall decorations out and we can order all the PSL’s we want! I know that summer is past us and the festivities and holidays are just around the corner! And it’s somewhat acceptable to slowly start listening to Christmas music?! Too soon?
Anyways these easy mini pumpkin pies are just what you need to make right now! Regular pumpkin pie is good and all but mini pumpkin pies are so much cuter!
INGREDIENTS:
-6 store bought mini pie crusts
-1 cup pumpkin purée
-1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
-1 egg
-1/3 cup dark brown sugar
-1/2 tsp cinnamon
-1/4 tsp nutmeg
-1/2 tsp vanilla extract
-dash of salt
-small amount of pie dough for leaves
METHOD:
In mixing bowl, add your wet ingredients first and then add your dry ingredients. Mix them all together until just combined. Place your store bought mini pie crusts onto a large cookie sheet. Pre-heat oven to 350 F. Pour the pumpkin batter into the mini pies making sure they don’t go over the brim of the crust. Use a cut out leaf cookie cutter to cut out your leaves. Or if you are very talented try it by hand if you don’t have a leaf cookie cutter. Place your cut out leaves onto the pies however you’d like. Bake for about 20 minutes.
