Description

These Mini Pies (Berry Crumble Pies) are a delightful treat, featuring a scrumptious filling of mixed berries with a buttery crumble topping. Perfect for quick desserts or family gatherings, these pies are easy to make and bursting with flavor!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 16 ounces frozen mixed berries, thawed
  • ⅓ cup water
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • ⅔ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 10 tablespoons Challenge Unsalted Butter
  • 1 ⅔ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2–3 tablespoons ice cold water
  • 4 tablespoons Challenge Unsalted Butter
  • ¼ cup packed brown sugar
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour

Instructions

  1. Drain the thawed berries thoroughly and place them in a medium saucepan with ⅓ cup water.
  2. Heat the berries over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally until some berries break down, approximately 3-5 minutes.
  3. In a small bowl, mix cornstarch and 2 tablespoons of water together until smooth.
  4. Add sugar and lemon juice to the berry mixture, then stir in the cornstarch slurry and mix well to avoid clumps.
  5. Stir constantly until the mixture thickens and starts bubbling, roughly 1-3 minutes.
  6. Once thick, remove from heat and transfer to a bowl or jar to cool completely. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours.

Notes

Ensure the berries are well-drained for the best texture.
Chill the filling before assembling the pies for better results.
Use cold water when preparing the crust for flakiness.
