Red, White, And Blue Cupcakes Are What Everyone Expects, So Try Making These Mini Pie Bites Instead For A Patriotic Dessert
As the Fourth of July rapidly approaches, it’s time to get creative in the kitchen and step up your dessert game!
Red, white, and blue cupcakes are the expectation. So this year, wow the crowd with something different.
It doesn’t get any cuter than these miniature patriotic pie bites. Fortunately, making this dessert is a breeze.
If you want to honor America’s birthday in the sweetest and tastiest possible way, try out this recipe from @pillsbury. What could be more American than pie?
Start by rolling out a Pillsbury pie crust into a twelve-inch circle. Use a round cookie cutter to carve out six circles from the dough.
Next, place the circles into a muffin tin and spoon two tablespoons of cherry pie filling into half of the cups.
In the other half, add two tablespoons of blueberry pie filling. It’s okay to be generous with your spoonfuls of pie filling!
Bake the mini pies at 425 degrees Fahrenheit for twenty minutes. While the pies are baking, use a star-shaped cutter to cut out stars from the remaining dough.
Arrange the stars onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Lightly brush them with water and add as many red and blue sprinkles as your heart desires. Stick them into the oven for five to seven minutes at 425 degrees Fahrenheit.

Once the pies have finished baking, allow the pies to cool in the pan for one hour. Then, carefully remove them from the pan using a knife.
Before serving the mini pies, top them with whipped cream, sprinkles, and one to two stars. Place the stars on the pies while they’re still warm so they will stay put.
You could also serve the pies with a small scoop of vanilla ice cream instead of whipped cream. To ensure your pies have the freshest flavor, bake them the day before your party or, better yet, the day of–if you have time, of course.
Now, that’s how you celebrate the Fourth!
