These mini pie cake pops are a great bite-sized version of the larger dessert offering a delicious yet portion-controlled way to enjoy the sweet, fruity and baked treat. The recipe by She Knows shares a simple how-to create these tiny pies in a variety of flavors.
The dessert begins like a traditional pie recipe calling for a homemade pie dough made with butter, flour, sugar and spices. Once the dough is rolled it is laid flat and secured to lollipop sticks. Then you can topped the dough with a filling of your choice such as caramel apple, blueberry, bumble berry or rhubarb in a small circle above the lollipop stick. Another layer of pie dough completes the cake pop and the dough is cut and baked in the oven.
