Description

I was looking for an easy and simple recipe to use up some strawberries that I had. Made with only 4 ingredients. Serve as-is or top with a powdered sugar and milk glaze.

Ingredients

1/2 (15 ounce) package refrigerated pie crust
1 cup diced fresh strawberries
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 large egg, beaten

Directions

1 Bring pie crust to room temperature. Place strawberries in a bowl and sprinkle with sugar. Set aside.
2 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
3 Roll out pie crust. Use a 4-inch pastry cutter to cut out 6 rounds.
4 Divide strawberries equally amongst the 6 rounds. Wet fingers with water and run them along the edges of each round. Fold rounds in half and press edges together using the tines of a fork until sealed. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Brush with beaten egg and cut a small slit in each pie.
5 Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, 20 to 25 minutes.
