Pie in a Jar

Step 4 Fill Jars

Fill your jars with the pie crust.

I rolled out the crust to make it pretty thin (so it's not just a jar of crust in the end - though I did make one of those too and sprinkled cinnamon on it and it was delicious), but in the end, you just have to take chunks of it and squish it all around inside the jar to make sure it's covered.

Add your pie filling and top it off with a crust. Use the lid ring to cut out the perfect size!

If you're planning on eating them right away, just fill them to the top and the crust can crown over the edges.

If you're planning on freezing them, make sure to only fill them part way so there's enough room to sink in a top crust and close the jar lid.

How do you make those adorable little cutouts?  tiny cookie cutter? paring knife?  It's this little detail that makes the presentation.
