SCH1031 Pie Maker, Plastic

Produces nice pumies, so convenient to use if you want to make a quick single pie. Can be used for savoury or desserts. Get ideas online, I was amazed at how versatile it is. I have bought other schallen products and like the quality.

I love a kitchen gadget and couldn't resist this little beauty. It makes the most delicious pies with all round crispness. Easy instructions, there is a cutty out thing for the base and the top so you can't go wrong with sizes.I put the pastry in the cold machine and turned it on for 25 minutes, and they are perfect. I then did a quiche, again put it in cold and I also put the filling in, didn't bother par cooking the pastry as it would be overcooked. Perfect.Not just for pies though, I then did a quick frylight spray and plopped the egg in with a teaspoon of water, boom! perfect egg.I follow a keto diet and I have made almond pastry quiche and again, perfect!Love this little gadget! Saves heating a whole oven for a small amount so saves money too.There isn't a recipe leaflet included, but really you don't need one. Make or buy your favourite pastry, fill it and cook it. Done.Pies. 25 minsQuiche 20 minsEgg. 3 minsTop tip..... Make sure your pastry is thin enough.Another top tip. Make a lift out strip with non stick paper although they do tip out easily.

Very easy to use, although pies took a little longer to cook than expected - but tasted great, and looked really professional.

Pie maker works well but lacks decent instructions. After googling why the pies were not browned on top, it is solved by slightly over filling the pie before placing the lid on, not 3/4 filling as per instructions. I find 200g of filling is ideal. Also find it’s impossible to place pastry in pre heated appliance, so do everything cold, heat for a couple of minutes before closing top and cooking for 14 minutes.

Great size pie's, evan cooking, I've had a few pie makers, but with most of them had trouble getting the pies out, one reason I chose this one is because of the stone coating as I have other kitchen appliances with it which nothing sticks to ,and yes, this is the same, actually when you lift the pie maker lid the pies lift out with it most times, if you want a pie maker, get this one 💯😄
