Instructions
- Preparation:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

- Prepare the Crust:
- Roll out the refrigerated pie crusts on a lightly floured surface.
- Use a round cookie cutter or a glass to cut out circles of dough that are slightly larger than the muffin tin openings.
- Assemble:
- Press each dough circle into the greased muffin tin, ensuring there is some overhang around the edges.
- Spoon the chicken mixture into each muffin cup, filling them almost to the top.
- Fold the overhanging dough over the filling, crimping the edges to seal the pot pies.
- Cut a small slit in the top of each pot pie to allow steam to escape during baking.
- Bake:
- Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
- Serve:
- Remove the mini chicken pot pies from the oven and let them cool in the muffin tin for a few minutes before carefully removing them.
- Serve warm and enjoy!
