Mini Raspberry Pies Recipe

mini pies
I am obsessed with baking pies. Well okay… I’m obsessed with baking in general. When I went to the grocery store last week and found Raspberries on sale for $.99 I picked up 3 packs and new a pie was in my future!

After looking over my pinterest boards I found a picture of adorable mini pies, and decided to go for it! I think these would be perfect for a gals get together, just add tea, or your favorite cocktail, some girlfriends and that sounds like a great afternoon to me! This mini raspberry pie recipe made about 8 mini pies, but I had filling leftover, so just double the crust recipe, make a little extra filling, and you’d be set for a larger group!
