Well, I found a two pie maker for $16.00. I can't see me eating four pies before one of them goes bad and ends up in the garbage disposal. It is not a Breville, but it got good reviews. And it doesn't come with the pie lifter but does have the crust cutters. I can order one from Breville. One woman complained that she had to chisel off any food spillage. When I see only one review that is not favorable I tend to wonder what that person did wrong. The other reviews stated that they had no trouble with cleanup. So it is off to BB&B for me. They may have the pie lifter also.
Does the plate come out for easy cleanup? Or do you have to clean the cups while it is in the machine? It doesn't make any difference. I still want one.

Well alright Addie! Welcome to the minipie making family!
The pie molds have to be cleaned in the machine on the Breville pie maker.
It's no big deal. I use a paper towel damp with cooking oil to clean mine. Cleanup is easy.

Jo,
Your pies look sooo tasty!
Catching up on what the Pie Cults been up to the last few days. It's been quite a lot. You guys are quick!
I had the same questions about the gravy ratio's per batch of Chicken pot pie's. Found a solution that would be " Guy Approved " Can they be Critics or what?
Went on a hunch while stocking up on pie supplies. Found these gravy mixes. At a Hostess Bakeshop of all places. I buy the Chicken and the Brown gravy by the cases. 1 package of mix makes 3 1/2 Cups. It's perfect for a batch of pies. Southeastern Mills Online Store
I use 4 large Chicken breasts, and veggies like you. It leaves plenty of room for you to have a little extra gravy in each pie. If anyone's into KFC's gravy, ( we are ) try the brown. It's an exact duplicate.
You can cheat like I did the other day. Tossed some chicken breasts into the crock. Pre mixed a pouch of gravy. Poured it over the top. Set it on low all night. All I had to do the next day was chop or shred the chicken. Prep the veggies, and get the doughs rolled out. Saved me a lot of time. Perfect pies every time. Life's good

Welcome to the Cult.. Babe To?... I never thought I'd see the day... On the other hand..I did to see it coming.
Clean up is a snap. The coating is non stick. Mine gets cleaned only when it needs it. Let the pie maker cool down just a bit. Wipe it down with a wet paper towel.
Cleaning it while it's cold will scratch the surface.
See you in just a little while

Morning all, making pies today, got now baking pepperoni, sausage with ricotta cheese, hubbys idea, he even helped load the pie crusts WOW huh. Will let ya know how they turn out, kinda like a calzone filling. I made 3 batches of home made crust so thinking I will be making lots of pies today and that is what they will eat for dinner & game time lol. I did manage to freeze 8 of my chicken pot pies with 4 in refrig for later on YEAH me lol. Be back later with update on my pies from today.
Thinking of the egg roll wrappers and crab rangoon filling...
Crab Rangoon
8oz cream cheese, softened
8 oz lump crab meat, picked over for shells
2 green onions, thin sliced with green tops
2 cloves garlic minced
sea salt to taste
mix all together and chill.
To make:
8 egg roll wrappers
one egg mixed with 2 tablespoons water
Brush all 4 edges of the wrapper with egg mixture, place 2 tablespoons Crab Rangoon mixture in center of wrapper, fold over corner-to-corner and seal. Place two Rangoons in each cup of the piemaker along with 2 teaspoons water to steam. Bake 6-10 minutes.
Serve with favorite Asian dipping sauce. No Deep Frying!
Now I'm thinking about pot stickers....

Your welcome, I made 26 total of those pies, using 2 packages of mild sausage each was 16 oz, 1 package pepperoni 6 oz, and 1 container ricotta cheese that was 2 lb size. The crust was from my crisco recipe and I used same size for bottom and tops. Worked out great that way.

Oh my gosh you have been busy. I like the calzone idea and will be making that for sure. I think I will go ahead and use pizza crust for mine and see how they turn out. Are you freezing the calzones? The pepperoni and mozzarella cheese sounds good too! Thanks for the great ideas.

I have what was not eaten of the calzones in bags is frig but will freeze some today too. Got 12 chicken pot pies in freezer. So my stash getting there lol. When you do the pizza crust let me know how it turns out, sounds good. Also another good one is put mozz cheese in bottom crust, then pepperoni and then more mozz cheese on top then top crust. Hubby loves that way too.
