Best Grape Glazed Fresh Berry Mini Pies Recipes

GRAPE-GLAZED FRESH BERRY MINI PIES

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. 2. Unroll the pie crusts. Cut four 5-inch rounds out of each crust for 12 rounds total. Reserve the scraps for another use. Press each round against the bottom and up the sides of a muffin cup in a muffin tin; you should have a 1/2 inch rim of crust. Decoratively crimp the rims around the tops of the muffin cups. 3. Bake for 7 minutes. Use a spoon to gently press the any puffing spots of crust flat. Continue baking until golden brown and set, 5 to 7 minutes longer. Cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. 4. Meanwhile, pour Farmer's Pick 100% Juice Concord Grape into a small saucepan and zest the lime into the juice. Stir in the sugar. Boil until reduced to a syrupy consistency, about 1/3 cup. Cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally. Squeeze 1 teaspoon lime juice into the syrup. Gently toss with the berries until well-coated. 5. Remove the pie crusts from the muffin tin. Fill each cup with berries. Serve immediately.

GLAZED FRESH BERRY PIE

Steps:

• First, bake the deep dish pie shells according to the instructions on the box, then let cool as you prepare the rest of the recipe.
• To make glaze, crush 2 cups strawberries; add cold water to make 2 cups juice mixture. Pour into small heavy saucepan and place over medium-high heat; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 3 minutes; strain and add cold water to make 2 cups.
• In heavy saucepan, combine sugar, cornstarch and salt. Gradually whisk in strawberry juice mixture and bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Cook for 1 minute or until mixture is thick, stirring constantly. Cool glaze slightly.
• Generously fill baked pie shells with the fresh strawberries and blueberries. Divide the glaze in half, then pour over the fruit in each pie. Put in refrigerator for 2 to 3 hours or until glaze is chilled and set.
• Just before serving, whip cream with some icing sugar and a splash of vanilla to sweeten. Enjoy this fantastic summer dessert! Everyone will ask for seconds.
