Pie Chips
Don't throw away your pie dough scraps! Make a quick snack, dessert, or side dish with them.
Ingredients
- pie dough scraps, cold
- 1 egg + splash of water for wash
- cinnamon sugar or turbinado sugar for topping
Instructions
- You can make pie chips from cold or room temperature dough, Just ensure that the butter is not melting or shiny.
- Preheat the oven to 400℉. On a lightly floured surface, roll the leftover scraps out to a thickness of ¼", just as you would for a regular pie crust. Transfer the rolled out dough to parchment lined pan.
- Using a pizza cutter or a knife, cut the pie dough into whatever chip shape you wish. You can dock each chip with a fork, or just leave them alone. Both are ok. They will still puff a little even if you dock them.
- Mix the egg and splash of water until will blended, then brush onto your pie chips. Sprinkle generously with cinnamon sugar or turbinado sugar. Using too little will result in bland pie chips.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until browned to your liking. Remove the pan and allow to cool for a few minutes before serving. These are best served fresh so they remain crispy.
