Why are mini pies so popular? Are they easy to make? Will your family be satisfied with eating mini pies at mealtime? Ah, the mini pie... it has always been popular as a type of little treat to take to parties and tailgate gatherings. But you can use it for regular meals and desserts, too. A recipe for the little pastry, whether savory or sweet, can be a wonderful way to serve tasty meals to your family and friends. Mini pies are so small; they are easy to share. They may take a little more time than a full-sized pie to prepare, but they'll be gobbled up quickly, which makes it worth the bit of extra effort. Most recipes of them don't use a lot of filling because it can bubble out if you use too much. Convenience for family meals and carry-in dinners can't be overstated, though.
