Mini Turkey Cranberry Pies

Description

Small, individual pies filled with turkey and cranberry sauce, perfect for a quick meal or snack.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 package (14.1 ounces) refrigerated pie crusts
  • 1 cup cooked, shredded turkey
  • 1/2 cup whole berry cranberry sauce
  • 1/4 cup chopped celery
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the shredded turkey, cranberry sauce, celery, mayonnaise, parsley, and thyme. Mix until just combined.
  3. Unroll the pie crusts. Use a 4-inch round cutter to cut out circles from each crust. You should get about 8 circles per crust.
  4. Place about 1 tablespoon of the turkey mixture onto the center of half of the circles.
  5. Brush the edges of the circles with the beaten egg wash. Top with the remaining circles, pressing the edges firmly to seal. Crimp the edges with a fork.
  6. Cut a small slit in the top of each pie to allow steam to escape.
  7. Brush the tops of the pies with the remaining egg wash.
  8. Bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.
  9. Let the pies cool slightly before serving.

Notes

  • You can use leftover Thanksgiving turkey for this recipe.
  • If you do not have fresh parsley, use 1 teaspoon of dried parsley instead.
  • For a crispier crust, brush the bottoms lightly with melted butter before adding the filling.
