Ingredients
1 box (14.1 oz) refrigerated pie crusts (2 count) 1 can (21 oz) cherry pie filling 1 large egg, beaten 1 tbsp granulated sugar
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Unroll one pie crust and cut into 9 even squares. Repeat with the second pie crust. Place a spoonful of cherry pie filling in the center of each square. Cut the remaining pie crust scraps into thin strips, about 1/4-inch wide. Lay strips haphazardly over the cherry filling, leaving a small opening for the “face”, to resemble mummy bandages. Pinch edges lightly to seal. Brush the pastry strips with beaten egg and sprinkle lightly with granulated sugar. Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until golden brown and the filling is bubbling. Let cool slightly on the baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Optionally, create eyes with small dots of icing or chocolate chips once cooled.
Notes
For an extra spooky touch, you can add two small chocolate chips or dots of white icing with a black center for eyes once the Mummy Cherry Pies have cooled completely. These are a fantastic treat for Halloween parties!
