Muffin Tin Meat Pies

It seems like every country on this great green earth has their own version of the meat pie, and it’s easy to see why… Hearty, savory meat encased in a tender flaky crust? Yes, please. They’re like a package of delicious, cozy comfort. What’s not to love? But we might love them even morewhen they’re baked up in individual servings! Our Muffin Tin Meat Pies make quick work of a delicious meal, and since they come personal-sized, there’s no need to share any of that goodness.

These are really quick to make (especially if you’re using a pre-made pie dough) and we find that they freeze really well

INGREDIENTS
2 9-inch refrigerated pie crusts
1 lb ground pork
1 medium onion, peeled and grated
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
2 eggs, beaten
1 tablespoon fresh sage, chopped
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper

PREPARATION
Preheat oven to 375°F and grease a muffin tin with nonstick spray. Set aside.
In a large bowl, combine ground pork, onion, salt, pepper, sage, breadcrumbs, and 1 tablespoon of the eggs. Mix to combine and refrigerate until ready to use.
Unroll dough and cut out 12 4-inch circles with a cookie cutter. Re-roll scraps of dough and cut out 12 2-inch circles.
Line muffin tins with larger circles of dough and divide meat filling evenly between cups. Top with 2-inch circles, pinching edges together to seal.
Poke holes in the top of each pie with a fork. Brush with remaining egg and bake until golden brown, 30-35 minutes. Let cool 15 minutes before removing pies from pan. Serve warm. Enjoy!
