Title: Mini pies...
Post by: metalspinner on November 18, 2007, 09:46:06 PM
My wife and i just got back from Walmart.  One of the things on her list were some small pie trays for individual pie servings.  They didn't have it. ::)  So she came home disappointed.  I headed to the shop... ;D

A bit later I came up with a dozen of these...

She was so happy, she let me pic the first pie flavor this year. 8)  I think we will go with pecan. ;D

Good show !!!

That size looks jus-s-st right.   'Specially for a personal pie., The commercial individual pecan pies have already had a precedent set.

'Course, if they were for me, I agree, 10' would be better 'cause I'm a glutton. ;D

Furby, did you see that I made a dozen of them?  I figure by the time I'm finished polishing off the first batch, the second batch will be coming out of the oven. :D

Piney,
They are aluminum.  The industry standard for aluminum cookware is "alloy" 1100 - pure aluminum.  I may make a few copper and give it a taste test.

Thanks, Paschale!
Of course, finished pie pics will follow. ;D

Norm..Hmmm
Maybe I will try a you tube clip.  I have not tryed that yet.  may take a little while.
