Mini Savory Pies with Spinach and Goat Cheese

July 22, 2011

Since I love pie so much, I thought it would be fun to make some mini savory pies.

These fun heart shaped pies are filled with spinach and goat cheese…yummy!

I purchased the mold from Williams-Sonoma I liked to it if you want to see what it looks like.

You could use a cookie cutter to make them like I did when I made these

Raspberry filled mini pies

if you don’t have a need to get the mold.

As soon as I saw they had a heart shaped mold, I grabbed it and started imagining what I would fill it with first.

Mini Savory Pies with Spinach and Goat Cheese

In a food processor blend:

one package frozen spinach (thawed)

2 oz. goat cheese

2 scallions

1 clove garlic

salt and pepper

I used refrigerated pie crust, rolled it a bit to stretch it out, then cut it with the mold as directed. I filled each pie with 2 tablespoons of filling, brushed them with an egg wash and baked them for 18 minutes at 400 degrees. They were golden brown and delicious.

I had enough filling to make 5, but the pie crust I used allowed for 4 so I will most likely put the remaining filling in an omelet

I’m looking forward to making more pies soon!

Jill: Do you eat these warm or are they still good cold? I’m looking for some tailgating recipes that will knock their socks off!!!! These might work with a football cookie cutter. Or I even have a football helmet.
