Thanks guys - I must have been googling the wrong name or something - found a lot of "family sized" dishes but no single/individual ones:)

Do they have a specific name by any chance, for future reference?

In the US they all them pie plates...I had edited my previous post because I misunderstood and didn't realize you wanted little ones. I see that Walmart does carry mini 6" ones but dragnlaw gave you better advice, they might have even smaller ones on Amazon.
 
I see Target has some too and calls them pie pans.

Mini pie pans, mini pie tins...I was looking at some carbon steel ones on Amazon that looked good. The reason I like pyrex pans better is because they hold up better than some metals do, but carbon steel should do nicely.

mega language issues hovering . . .

what US considers "pies" - ala fruit pies, pan, sloped sides , , , ,
is not necessarily what European / esp. British/UK / as-assumed by Aussies . . .
the same thing.

"pasties" - ?Welsh? are monikered as "meat pies" - but what would be called a 'turnover with meat not fruit filling' in USA.

USA 'pot pies' - made/cooked (commercially) in either a single serving sloped sided "shell" or (home style) a straight sided ramekin . . . is another variant.

all of which goes up in smoke when talking about non-meat round things - like "tortes"
which are almost without exception done in straight sided pans - USA style "spring form" pans.
 
But check the $$tore ones are both micro and oven safe! Had one crack on me because I forgot it wasn't micro safe, :cry: .. so much for that snack!

But all have a crust of some sort... either top or bottom, both top & bottom, and/or hand held.
