Pocket full of… Blueberry Pies?

Blueberry Pocket Pies that is. I saw these Pocket Pie Molds on Williams-Sonoma’s site a while back and just had to try them. Last week I finally ordered a set (heart & star) and they came in today so I stopped by the market to pick up some fresh blueberries.

The molds work really well and are easy to use. The heart mold holds a bit more filling than the star.

Take a look at these gorgeous berries. I must confess… some of them never made it into the pies…

For the filling I used a Blueberry Pie recipe from MarthaStewart.com. Oh my goodness, it was de-lish!! Normally, I’m not one for blueberry pie (I’m more of a peach gal) but I have to say this rivals almost any fruit pie I’ve ever made.

Rather than using the crust recipe on the back of the boxes I opted for the Pate Brisee (crust) recipe, also from Martha. It was perfectly flaky and buttery! It made about 6 but I have a feeling had I rolled out my dough a bit more I easily could have gotten 8. But I tend to like more crust so I think it worked out just fine.

Poor thing. Didn’t even make it through the photos… I will definitely be trying these again with other fillings.
