Mini Peach Pies
I picked up some beautiful peaches from a local Oregon farm. We were invited to a friend’s house for a pool party and barbecue so I made these mini peach pies. One of my friends is allergic to peaches (poor thing) so I decided to make a few mini blueberry pies for her (I just used canned pie filling). The pies were fun and easy to make and smelled absolutely amazing while baking. They turned out cute and so delicious! They were a huge hit with everyone at the pool party and disappeared quickly.
Mini Peach Pies:
Ingredients:
- 2 pie crusts (homemade or store-bought)
- 5 peaches, peeled and diced
- 1/2 cup of white sugar
- 3 tbsp brown sugar
- 2 tbsp of cornstarch
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 egg + 1 tbsp water
How to Make Mini Peach Pies
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Coat a muffin tin with cooking spray.
Combine the diced peaches with the white sugar, brown sugar, cornstarch, vanilla extract, and cinnamon, mixing then gently.
Roll out the pie crusts on a floured surface then roll them out with a rolling pin. Use a cookie cutter or a ramekin to cut 4-inch circles out of the pie crusts.
Roll the leftover dough up into a ball then roll out with a rolling pin and cut out more 4 inch circles. I had enough to fill all muffin tins because I rolled my dough out pretty thin.
Place the circles (bottom crusts) into the muffin tin, pressing them firmly but gently to the sides. Scoop 2 tablespoons of peach pie filling into each tin.
Roll out the other pie crust and smooth them out using a rolling pin. Using a sharp knife, cut out hearts and strips to cover the pies. Top the pies with the crusts.
Mix the egg and water together and brush the tops of each pie with the mixture. Place in the oven and bake for 30 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.
Let the mini pies cool for 5-10 minutes. Serve plain or with vanilla ice cream. Enjoy.

Made these over the weekend for Easter. They were a HUGE hit and so easy to make. Thank you for the inspiration 🙂
Thanks! They’re in the oven now and smell amazing! I can’t wait to have some.
Do these have to be served warm? I was thinking of making them to bring to a bar b que so they would need to be made in advance
Mine were room temperature when I served them and they were wonderful.
These are in the oven right now! 😀 We actually ate a little of the filling on its own, haha. Naughty us!
