Serving Size and Yield

Makes approximately 8 mini pies.

Preparation and Cooking Time

Preparation Time: 20 minutes

Cooking Time: 25 minutes

Cooling Time: 10 minutes

Total Time: 55 minutes

Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup mixed berries (e.g., blueberries, raspberries, strawberries)
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 cup rolled oats
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup chopped nuts (e.g., almonds, walnuts)
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions

Prepare the crust by combining flour, granulated sugar, and salt in a bowl. Add the chilled butter and mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Press the crust mixture into the bottom and sides of 8 mini pie tins or a muffin tin. Set aside.
Mix the berries, honey, and lemon juice in a separate bowl. Spoon the berry mixture evenly into the prepared crusts.
Combine oats, brown sugar, nuts, and cinnamon in another bowl. Sprinkle this crumble mixture over the berry filling in each pie.
Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 25 minutes or until the tops are golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
Cool the pies for 10 minutes before serving.

Additional Notes

Feel free to substitute the mixed berries with your favorite fruits, such as apples or peaches. For a gluten-free version, use almond flour instead of all-purpose flour. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent treat.
